A jury trial was scheduled in the forgery case against a Hopkinsville City councilwoman.
During a virtual pretrial conference in Christian Circuit Court Wednesday morning, defense attorney David Rye represented Kimberly McCarley on behalf of Ben Fletcher and asked for Chief Circuit Judge John Atkins to set a trial date. Judge Atkins set a jury trial for May 24th.
McCarley was indicted in August 2019 for second-degree forgery after she allegedly forged the name of a woman on a bank document without permission on June 22, 2016.
McCarley has served on Hopkinsville City Council since 2009 and represents Ward 2.
