After a series of legal and COVID-19 pandemic-related delays spanning more than a year, the trial of accused Susie Zhao murderer Jeffery Bernard Morris will finally get underway this week.

The trial, set to begin on Monday, Oct. 3, comes more than two years after the body of 33-year-old Zhao, a poker player and regular in the Los Angeles cash game scene, was discovered burned and partially mutilated in White Lake, Michigan in July 2020.
