Andrade Trial Called Off

In a pair of announcements issued from the Moakley Federal Court House Wednesday, the trial set to begin with jury selection for the former Campaign Manager and Chief of Staff for convicted former Fall River Mayor Jasiel Correia on March 7 was cancelled. 

Instead, what is listed as a Plea and Sentence hearing for Gen Andrade will happen in Courtroom One of the Moakley Federal Courthouse in Boston's Seaport District beginning at 11am. 

A plea deal has been worked out between Federal Prosecutors and Andrade's Defense team that would have Andrade plead guilty to making false statements to Federal Investigators. 

The other charges have been dropped by prosecutors.
