The trial of the man accused of killing his father in Oak Grove was supposed to get underway Tuesday morning, but was postponed at the last minute. After the jury waited for selection to begin in the Darrell Tidwell trial, Circuit Judge John Atkins announced that, much to his chagrin, they were dismissed.
After the jury left the courtroom, Judge Atkins explained why the trial had been called off for the time being.
Judge Atkins set another trial date for April 29th, with a competency hearing and an evaluation by the Kentucky Correctional Psychiatric Center to fall sometime in the interim. Tidwell is accused of killing his father in Oak Grove in November of 2011.
