Janet Hinds asks for a change of venue in court today

CHATTANOOGA (WDEF) – Janet Hinds headed back to court today.

It was the latest in a series of appearances for Hinds, who is charged with the hit and run death of police officer Nicholas Galinger.

It happened in February of last year.

Hinds’ attorneys are asking for a change of venue for the case.

They want the trial moved out of the area, so they say she can receive a fair trial.

Hinds is also charged with drunken driving.

Judge Don Poole took it under advisement, and set another hearing for February 18th.

He also is expected to set a trial date for Hinds.
