Source: The Sun, Yuma, Ariz.儲存Nov. 09--A hearing in Yuma County Superior Court on Friday for a woman charged with murder in the death of her 3-year-old grandson was continued until late next month due to a change of legal counsel.Attorney Michael Donovan, who now represents 35-year-old Rachel Spry, informed the court during a very brief hearing that he needed more time to familiarize himself with the case because he had only been provided with minimal disclosure.Donovan explained that he had not yet received any of the disclosure in the case from Spry's previous attorney but would make arrangements to have it soon. He added that the only disclosure he had were 218 pages from his client, which he had already begun to review.Superior Court Judge John Nelson, who is presiding over the case, granted Donovan's request for additional time, rescheduling the next hearing for 8:30 a.m. on Dec. 20.Spry, 35, has been charged with second-degree murder involving domestic violence; misconduct involving a deadly weapon, specifically a gun; possession of dangerous drugs (methamphetamine); possession of drug paraphernalia (packaging); and reckless endangerment of a minor involving domestic violence.She is being held in the Yuma County jail on a $500,000 bond.According to the Yuma Police Department, office迷你倉s were dispatched to a residence in the 1200 block of 11th Avenue in early May in response to a report of a child having been shot.A 3-year-old boy, identified by Yuma police as Darrien Nez, was transported to Yuma Regional Medical Center by emergency personnel and later pronounced dead.Court records indicated that the residence was the home of Spry's daughter and that Spry had been staying there to help pack in preparation for a move.Spry owned a 9 mm handgun, which she kept inside a backpack. She said she was packing the bathroom that morning and placed the backpack on top of a clothes dryer. Court records indicated that Spry said she saw her grandson come into the room but continued packing.According to court records, Spry said she heard the gun go off about five minutes later, and when she looked over, she saw her grandson lying on the floor and bleeding from the nose.Court records indicate that the gun went off after the child pulled the backpack off the top of the dryer.Court records also indicate that Spry admitted to using methamphetamine the day before at about 11 p.m. and placed the pipe she used to smoke it in the same backpack as the gun.Copyright: ___ (c)2013 The Sun (Yuma, Ariz.)
