Former tribal Chairman's second trial to be pushed back

WPBN/WGTU — Former Tribal Chairman of the Grand Traverse Band of Ottawa and Chippewa Indians, Derek Bailey, will not be sentenced on his recent sex crimes conviction in Leelanau County until his Grand Traverse County trial is over, where he faces additional sex charges.

Circuit Court Judge Philip Rodgers went on record Friday afternoon saying he's seriously considering changing the venue of Bailey's trial due to publicity surrounding the case.
