涉 Kouri Richins 谋杀案调查风波：Wasatch 县警长 Jared Rigby 申请审案法官回避
犹他州 Wasatch 县警长 Jared Rigby 本周一向法院提交动议，要求审理其案件的法官 Richard Mrazik 回避。Mrazik 此前主持审理了备受关注的 Kouri Richins 谋杀案。
动议涉及一封与前 Summit 县警探 Eric Mainord 有关的信件。Rigby 与前警长 Dave Edmunds 本月双双被起诉：Rigby 面临妨碍司法的二级重罪指控与虚假书面陈述的 B 级轻罪指控，案件与执法人员的 Brady-Giglio 诚信记录政策有关——这类记录会影响执法人员在法庭作证的资格。
Rigby 方面认为，Mrazik 法官在此前的相关程序中接触过涉案信件，不应继续审理此案。法院尚未就动议作出裁决。（GSM 据 KSL 报道）
Wasatch County Sheriff Jared Rigby Moves to Disqualify Judge in Case Tied to Richins Investigation Fallout
Wasatch County Sheriff Jared Rigby filed a motion on Monday asking Judge Richard Mrazik to recuse himself from Rigby's case. Mrazik previously presided over the high-profile Kouri Richins murder trial.
The motion concerns a letter involving former Summit County detective Eric Mainord. Rigby and former Sheriff Dave Edmunds were both charged this month: Rigby faces a second-degree felony obstruction of justice charge and a class B misdemeanor false written statement charge, in a case tied to Brady-Giglio credibility policies that affect whether officers may testify in court.
Rigby's filing argues that Judge Mrazik encountered the letter in earlier related proceedings and should not continue on the case. The court has not yet ruled on the motion. (GSM, based on reporting by KSL)
