Peter Beck Hearing Delayed

Today's court hearing has been delayed for Republican State Representative Peter Beck, who has pleaded not guilty to 16 fraud and theft charges for allegedly misleading investors about a company's financial status and using their money for personal gain. The defense asked for more time to review more than 60 thousand pages of information from the prosecutor, and the judge delayed the hearing until October 31st. Beck has dismissed calls for his resignation.

Jim has been with WCBE since 1996. Before that he worked as a reporter at another Columbus radio station, and for three newspapers in Southwest Florida.
