Summary

The widow of slain Deputy Charles Riley is demanding his murder trial be moved out of Iberville Parish, arguing the courthouse where he was killed — including the exact crime scene — compromises juror impartiality. She seeks transfer to Pointe Coupee or Avoyelles, citing Sheriff Brett Stassi’s dual role in law enforcement and courtroom operations as a conflict of interest. A separate motion asks all 18th Judicial District judges to recuse themselves due to close ties with courthouse staff, prompting a request for a special judge from outside the district to ensure a fair, unbiased trial.
