A judge in Pottawattamie County has denied motions from lawyers for 63-year old Robert A. Reynolds that could have granted him a new trial. The Oakland man was found guilty of 1st Degree Murder late last November in the shooting death at his home, of 64-year old Patricia Kinkade-Dorsey, from Atlantic. The Daily NonPareil reports that on Tuesday morning, Fourth District Court Judge Greg Steensland denied the motions filed on Jan. 15th, by Reynolds’ defense attorneys, that had questioned the admissibility of a voice recording entered as evidence during Reynolds’ trial, questioned statements by Pottawattamie County Attorney Matt Wilber at trial and questioned the jury selection process.
