After an incamera hearing involving the Prosecution and Defense Attorneys, U-S Federal Judge Douglas Woodlock has moved up the trial start date for Recalled and Twice Indicted Former Fall River Mayor Jasiel Correia II to April 24, as Jury Selection will begin on that day, with opening arguments set once the jury has been selected inside the Moakley Federal Courthouse in Boston's Seaport District. 

The former Mayor is alleged to have bilked investors out of a six figure sum in counts 1-13 related to the SnoOwl Smart Phone Application, and is accused of allegedly taking kickbacks for letters of non opposition, for recreational marijuana locations a practice which was eliminated in 2020 by the Cannibas Control Commission.
