Two of six Missouri men accused of sexually abusing young relatives two decades ago have been granted requests for new judges in their cases.
David Mohler and his brother Roland Mohler want their trials on numerous rape and other abuse charges moved out of northwest Missouri's Lafayette County. The judge on Monday granted them each a new judge, who will decide later on the requests for a change of venue.
Another brother, Burrell Mohler Jr., on Monday withdrew his request for a new judge. But he's still seeking a change of venue, and a hearing on that motion was scheduled Monday for April 5.
The three, along with brother Jared Mohler, uncle Darrel Mohler and father Burrell Mohler Sr. are accused of assaulting at least three relatives two decades ago on a farm near Bates City.
