JANESVILLE—A preliminary hearing for a Milton couple accused of exposing their 8-year-old daughter to sexual acts and pornographic material has been postponed because neither defendant has a lawyer.

The hearing for Lisa and Jeff Wickline, 1006 W. Madison Ave., Milton, was supposed to be Tuesday. Instead, the court commissioner scheduled a status conference for 1 p.m. Wednesday, Jan. 30. If the Wicklines have lawyers at that time, the court will set a date for a preliminary hearing.

The Wicklines are charged with exposing a child to harmful material and causing a child to view or listen to sexual activity.

It probably means at that time the court will appoint a public defender.

They can get a public defender can't they? Or better yet; lock them up and throw away the key!!

So does that mean if they do not get an attorney then they will not have a hearing?
