Bush robbery trial to resume today
NORWICH – Jury selection will resume today for a Norwich man facing life in prison for his alleged role in a deadly drug shoot-out in July, 2007.
Attorneys will select the last juror and two alternates later this afternoon after they unexpectedly exhausted all 58 potential jurors last week.
James F. Bush, 46, of Burdick Medbury Road, Norwich, allegedly aided co-conspirator Joshua D. Richheimer of Pittsfield in an attempted robbery.
Bush is accused of driving his alleged co-conspirator, Joshua D. Richheimer, to the home of Robert Reynolds of Pleasant Valley Road in Sherburne on his motorcycle to rob Reynolds at gunpoint.
The robbery turned into a deadly shoot-out that led to Richheimer’s death.
The police investigation ruled that Reynolds killed Richheimer in self-defense.
Police accuse Bush of providing the sawed-off shotgun used in the crime.
Reynolds pleaded guilty to second-degree unlawful possession of marijuana and will be sentenced one to two and a half years in state prison; the deal also required him testify as a witness in the trial.
Bush turned down a five-year prison sentence in a plea bargain offered Oct. 6 and elected to risk 25 years to life in prison if convicted by a jury.
Bush remains at the Chenango County Correctional Facility in lieu $10,000 bail.
