Sex crimes asked to be dismissed

WHEELING -- Attorneys for a Wheeling Island man accused of sex crimes, including sexual assault and incest, are asking for some of those charges to be dismissed.
Douglas Charles Jackson, 40, is also accused of showing pornography to young children, however, his defense argued today that the material the child saw was not obscene, so 20 of the 133 charges should be dismissed.

Judge James Mazzone is giving the state time to review that part of the case before he rules.

Meanwhile, Jackson's trial date is set for Nov. 30. He is in the Northern Regional Jail on a $2 million bond.
