A defendant is seeking a new trial after being convicted of murder. The 19-year-old was sentenced to 35 years in prison for fatally stabbing a 17-year-old athlete. The defendant's legal team argues that a retrial is warranted due to strict courtroom rules and a post-trial interview given by the judge.

The original judge has been ordered removed from the case. A new judge will be assigned to hear the retrial request. The defendant attended a recent hearing related to this matter.
