The subject of a police search last week is due in court tomorrow and in the coming weeks for a number of cases.
Jury selection for two DUI cases against 44-year-old Randy Wilson Bertuzzi is scheduled for tomorrow in the courtroom of Judge Thomas Bianco. Then on Thursday, Bertuzzi is slated for preliminary hearings before Judge Tony Sotile for violations of protection from abuse orders, simple assault, and burglary. Additional charges include criminal trespass and unauthorized use of a motor vehicle.
On May 20th, Bertuzzi is scheduled for trial before Judge Bianco in a possession with intent to deliver case. In June, he’s scheduled for trial in a retail theft case. Bianco is also awaiting the results of hearings on contempt charges for violating the PFA orders.
After warrants for his arrest were issued last week, Bertuzzi was spotted driving a vehicle Tuesday afternoon by a state trooper. While he was being followed, Bertuzzi abandoned the vehicle and fled on foot. Later that night, troopers were dispatched to a home on Ben Franklin Highway in Strongstown, where they found him hiding in the attic. He was tased in order to apprehend him.
The woman in whose home Bertuzzi was found, 40-year-old Becky Lee Davis, is charged with felony hindering apprehension. She’s due for a preliminary hearing on Tuesday before District Judge Susanne Steffee.
Jury selection is also scheduled Monday for 23-year-old Isaiah Moore, who is charged with homicide and related offenses for the shooting death Jadeyn Wright at the Carriage House Apartments in Indiana in October 2020.
Moore is one of four defendants in Wright’s murder. The other three defendants’ cases remain in the Indiana County Court system.
