Jesse James Hollywood Moves Closer To Trial Date

We’re getting’ closer. Jesse James Hollywood  whose murder case was dramatized in the 2006 movie “Alpha Dog” and the 2008 award-winning novel “Stolen Boy,” goes to trial in February.

Jesse James HollywoodOn Thursday, Santa Barbara Superior Court Judge Brian Hill set a February 19th, 2009 trial date for Hollywood, who could face the death penalty if convicted of killing 15-year-old Nicholas Markowitz, on August 9th, 2000.

This will provide Hollywood with the opportunity for the first time in court to tell his version of events, which promises to differ from the demonization he faced through law enforcement officials and the mass media upon his disappearance. This gap in factuality, which was depicted in “Stolen Boy,” could be the difference between life and death for the youngest man ever to appear on the FBI’s Most Wanted List.
