The Dawsonville defendant accused of killing 19-year-old Kaleb Duckworth will likely have a late summer trial. During a March 8 hearing, Northeastern Judicial Circuit Chief Judge Kathlene Gosselin predicted a July or August 2022 trial for 20-year-old Daniel Lee Roberts’ pending murder case. Roberts’ attorney said he finished receiving discovery for the 2021 case last month and asked for a pretrial hearing within the next 90 days.
