A Scottsville man charged with killing a seven-year-old girl last month will return to court later this month for a preliminary hearing.
Timothy Madden’s hearing in Allen District Court Wednesday was postponed after his attorney, Travis Lock, requested more time to review a new report on DNA evidence. A judge re-scheduled the hearing for December 14, although a grand jury could indict Madden in the meantime.
The 38-year-old Madden is charged with raping and murdering Gabriella Doolin who disappeared November 14 while watching a football game with her family at Allen County-Scottsville High School. Lock said he has subpoenaed surveillance video from "local establishments."
"Obviously any time there are audio or video recordings that are made in close proximity to the time of the alleged crime, then those recordings are going to be critical pieces of evidence, one way or the other," Lock told WKU Public Radio.
In a related case, Madden’s son Bradley also remains in jail. He pleaded not guilty Wednesday to terroristic threatening and intimidating a participant in the legal process. He allegedly made obscene comments and threats to police regarding his father’s arrest.
