The trial of a Bay City man who has already confessed in open court to killing his girlfriend is not going ahead in May as scheduled. Bay County Circuit Judge Joseph K. Sheeran on Friday adjourned the May 15 and 30 dates for the trial of Jeffrey M. Julian II. The dates were adjourned due to scheduling conflicts with prosecutors and defense counsel. The 23-year-old Julian is now slated to go before a jury on June 13. Julian testified in the June trial of younger brother Craig A. Julian that he strangled 33-year-old Lynn M. Spicer outside their home in Bay City’s Banks District in the early morning of Aug. 21, 2010. Jeff Julian said his brother had nothing to do with Spicer’s slaying, while prosecutors argued the brothers planned the killing and buried Spicer’s body together. The jury sided with prosecutors and found Craig Julian guilty of first-degree premeditated murder and removal of a body. He is serving life in prison without possibility of parole.
