There's a new judge assigned to the Lisa McPherson case. He is Judge Frank Quesada. He's a former Assistant State Attorney and Criminal and Juvenile Judge. You can read his biography at http://www.jud6.org/GeneralInfo/Judges/quesada/quesada.htm He is in St. Petersburg, which is in Pinellas County like Clearwater is, and the jury pool would be from the whole county. There is still a motion to return the case to Hillsborough County because the motion to move to Pinellas was not made by Scientology in time for Florida rules. But for now, this is the guy. He has a kind face, IMO. --
