The trial for a former Hawkeye football player accused of sexually assaulting a female student-athlete has been rescheduled — probably for the last time — for July.
Cedric Everson’s trial is now set for July 12, 2010. His pretrial conference will be July 2, 2010.
Everson, along with teammate Abe Satterfield, is charged with second-degree sexual abuse. Satterfield is also charged with third-degree sexual abuse.
They are accused of sexually assaulting the woman in a Hillcrest dorm room in October 2007.
Satterfield’s trial is scheduled for April 12, 2010. After a judge agreed to delay Satterfield’s trial in late September, Everson’s attorney requested his client’s trial be delayed as well. He has asked that Everson be tried after Satterfield.
Sixth District Judge Marsha Beckelman ruled neither case could be delayed again without the consent of the chief judge.
