THE jury trial of murder suspect Alvin Nash Quinata has been scheduled for April 10.
According to Quinata’s counsel, Howard Trapp, the jury selection in the courtroom of Superior Court Judge Steven Unpingco will start on April 10 while the motion cut-off date will be on March 6.
Quinata, a former cook of Black Hole Nightclub, is being held under a $1 million cash bail for the alleged murder of his former employer, Un Chong Kim.
Quinata, 23, earlier pleaded not guilty to an enhanced grand jury indictment of aggravated murder with special allegations of possession and use of deadly weapons.
Kim’s body was found on Jan. 18, 2007 in a jungle area near the Sella Bay Lookout Park in Umatac. The cause of her death was blunt trauma to the head, and stab wounds to the neck and chest.
Quinata allegedly used a knife and a rock in murdering Kim.
Kim was reported missing on Jan. 17, 2007 after she did not return having said she would go shopping.
After Kim’s body was discovered in Umatac, her burnt vehicle, a Ford Ranger pickup truck, was located approximately 300 yards from the Vietnam Heroes Memorial Park which is about 100 yards from a water tank along Route 2 where witnesses saw Quinata earlier on the same day.
