The family of shooting victim is upset with the latest delay in trying two people accused of shooting Joshua Dearien on a downtown Charleston Street.
Ricky Walker's malicious wounding trial set for Monday was moved back to May after his newly hired lawyer told a judge that public defenders were slow in proving information about the case they originally handled to him.
