ST. LOUIS _ A St. Louis judge Tuesday postponed Mark and Patricia McCloskey's Tuesday morning court appearance until next Wednesday, a move the couple's lawyer says suggests that a St. Louis grand jury soon will decide whether to issue an indictment.
Defense lawyer Joel Schwartz told reporters the one-week continuance of the McCloskeys' hearing signals that the grand jury will decide before next week whether to indict the couple. He told the St. Louis Post-Dispatch on Monday that he learned the grand jury heard some testimony and case evidence last week.
