THE TRIAL OF A FORMER SIOUX CITY MAN CHARGED WITH FIRST DEGREE MURDER IN THE 1983 SHOOTING DEATH OF A SIOUX CITY WOMAN HAS BEEN CONTINUED AGAIN.
63-YEAR-OLD THOMAS POPP IS CHARGED IN THE DEATH OF 18-YEAR-OLD TERRI MCCAULEY.
POPP’S ATTORNEY FILED A MOTION TO CONTINUE THE TRIAL.
THE COURT NARROWLY FOUND THAT THE DEFENDANT HAD ESTABLISHED GOOD CAUSE AND A COMPELLING REASON FOR A CONTINUANCE, SO THE COURT GRANTED THE MOTION.
THE TRIAL HAS BEEN CONTINUED FROM FEBRUARY 17TH TO A DATE TO BE DETERMINED AFTER CONSULTATION WITH THE ATTORNEYS IN THE CASE.
POPP REMAINS HELD IN THE WOODBURY COUNTY JAIL.
