Original: Former church leader Gary Keesee Jr. waives jury trial in Knox County rape case
Gary Keesee Jr., a former church leader, has waived his right to a jury trial in a rape case pending in Knox County, Ohio. His trial will now be decided by a judge rather than a jury. The case has drawn attention because of Keesee's former role in a church and the serious nature of the charges he faces.
Why now: The waiver moves a high-profile case involving a former church leader closer to a verdict, drawing regional attention.
