Hearing Held In Third Trial Of Former Tulsa Police Officer Shannon Kepler

Shannon Kepler is gearing up for his third trial, which starts on June 26th. Kepler is charged with first-degree murder for the shooting and killing of his daughter's boyfriend, Jeremey Lake.

The juries in his first two trials couldn't come to a unanimous decision.

In his first trial in November 2016, the jury was hung at 11-1, with 11 jurors in favor of convicting him for first-degree murder.

In his second trial - February 2017 - the jury was split 10-2 in favor of his conviction. 

A pre-trial hearing was held Tuesday afternoon. The Tulsa County District Attorney's Office said they are ready to move forward and are not any type of trial delay.
