Judge Sets New Trial Date For Brittany Pilkington

Attorneys for the Bellefontaine woman accused of suffocating her three young sons will not oppose the genetic testing sought by prosecutors. The prosecution wants a blood sample from 24-year-old Brittany Pilkington to rule out genetic disorders as the cause of the deaths.  Defense attorneys also want a judge to throw out Pilkington's confession, split the case into three trials and remove the death penalty as a possibile punishment.  A judge has rescheduled Pilkington's trial from October to February 27 of next year.
