BOWLING GREEN — The trial of Sam Terry, 46, charged with allegedly stealing money from charities in Bowling Green, has been delayed because of other court proceedings, according to Warren County Commonwealth Attorney Chris Cohron.

A pre-trial conference originally set for March 15 has been rescheduled to April 19 in the Warren County Justice Center.

Terry was indicted by a Warren County grand jury for allegedly stealing money from the Hobson House Commission, which operates the Riverview at Hobson House museum in Bowling Green, or Friends of Riverview, a group that raises money for the museum, between April 2007 and July 2008.

He was charged with 11 counts of theft by unlawful taking over $300 and one count of theft by failure to make required disposition of property, according to the indictment. He pleaded not guilty to all 12 counts during his arraignment in Warren County Circuit Court in September of last year. He was dismissed from his duties as executive director of the commission in October 2008 after a review of commission records revealed financial irregularities, according to Daily Times archives.

Glasgow City Council reappointed Terry to the Renaissance Main Street Steering Committee on Feb. 9 and stand by their reappointment, saying a person is innocent until proven guilty.

Mayor Darrell Pickett and various city council members have said if Terry is convicted, a request of resignation will be given, or Terry will be removed from the board by the council.
