WILKES-BARRE, LUZERNE COUNTY Ð Convicted child killer Michael Bardo wants a new trial.
He was convicted of molesting and strangling his 3 year-old niece Joelle Donovan. His lawyer says he should get a new trial because of his difficult childhood.
Bardo was granted a stay of execution last January. Judge Patrick Toole said Bardo's lawyers should have more time to review the case.
His hearing is expected to last for several days. | |
