Judge Bryan Meismer moves Jason Jones' quadruple murder trial from Cedar County to Dakota County due to excessive publicity.
Judge Bryan Meismer orders the high-profile quadruple murder trial of Jason Jones, accused of killing four people in rural Laurel, Nebraska, to be moved from Cedar County to nearby Dakota County due to pervasive publicity, making it impossible for Jones to receive a fair trial in Cedar County. The change will provide a larger jury pool of about 21,000 residents, compared to Cedar County's population of 8,300.
