Change of judge, venue granted for former Speaker of the House

When former Speaker of the House Rod Jetton comes to trial on an assault charge, it will be in a different county and in front of a different judge.

Online Scott County Circuit Court records indicate Jetton's requests were approved Wednesday, the day after he entered a not guilty plea during his arraignment.

Jetton is charged with second degree assault in connection with alleged rough sex with a Sikeston woman. More information about the charge can be found at this link.
