The Preston Lord case is heating up as Jacob Meisner’s trial date locks in for November 3rd, facing first-degree murder and kidnapping charges tied to the brutal beating death of 16-year-old Preston Lord. The tragedy sparked statewide change, including “Preston’s Law” and local bans on brass knuckles. While Meisner’s case moves forward, five other defendants await their court dates — and one, William Hines, has already accepted a plea deal, sentenced to 12 years. The legal saga continues to unfold with high stakes and national attention.
