Accused killer of Golden City girl asks for change of venue

If the attorney for accused killer Bobby Dale Bourne has his way, Bourne's trial will not be held in the Barton County Courthouse in Lamar.

Thomas Jacquinot, a public defender who specializes in death penalty cases, filed a motion today asking for a change of venue due to the amount of publicity Bourne's case has received.

Bourne, 35, Lockwood, is charged with first degree murder, kidnapping, statutory rape, and armed criminal action in connection with the August 19 murder of 12-year-old Adriaunna Horton of Golden City.

Barton County Prosecuting Attorney Steven Kaderly has filed his intent to seek the death penalty.
