Trial delayed in deaths of two people shot at Lake of the Ozarks
The trial of a suburban Kansas City lawyer charged with killing her father and his girlfriend has been delayed and will now include members of the Missouri Attorney General’s office on the prosecution team.
The Lake Sun Leader reports a Circuit Court judge agreed Monday to continue the trial of Susan Van Note, which was scheduled to begin in February. No new trial date was set.
Van Note, of Lee’s Summit, faces two counts of first-degree murder in the October 2010 shooting deaths of William Van Note and Sharon Dickson at the Lake of the Ozarks. Dickson died at the scene. William Van Note was hospitalized and prosecutors allege his daughter persuaded doctors to remove him from life support after she forged durable power of attorney documents.
