(Phoenix, Arizona) - The judge overseeing the criminal trial of the former Backpage.com owners has granted another motion by the defense to move the trial date, to April 2021, the third anniversary of Michael Lacey and Jim Larkin's arrest and assets seizure. The trial, originally scheduled for May 2020, had first been postponed until August 17, and then to January 2021, due to concerns regarding the COVID-19 health crisis.
