The judge in the cases has previously reviewed motions in the case. During a two-day hearing in October, Logan County Common Pleas Judge Mark O’Connor reviewed more than four hours of recorded police interviews with Pilkington. He then ruled a confession that was taped by police can be used against her in court.
Logan County Prosecutor Eric Stewart and defense attorney Marc Triplett couldn’t be reached for comment on Wednesday.
