Trial date Monday for retired Springfield Police Detective Kevin Burnham, accused of stealing nearly $400,000 from evidence room
SPRINGFIELD -- Monday is the trial date for retired Springfield Detective Kevin Burnham, accused of stealing nearly $400,000 from the Police Department's evidence room over four and a half years.
Burnham's trial date previously has been moved several times.
If Burnham were to opt to go to trial it would not start Monday but would be assigned to a judge's session for scheduling by that judge. If Burnham decides to plead guilty, the plea could be taken Monday.
The 43-year veteran of the police force pleaded not guilty to multiple counts of larceny at his arraignment in January 2016. Charges were brought by the state attorney general's office after a lengthy investigation of the retired officer, who was 66 at the time.
