Murder Trial
10. The national press turned its attention to Rappahannock in March and again in October for the trial and retrial of Diane Kidwell on charges that she murdered Ranee Spellman when "■she shot the Flint Hill farm manager from his bulldozer in a right-of-way dispute in November, 1982. Kidwell’s first hearing befor a panel of 12 county jurors ended in a mistrial when the panel could not reach a unanimous verdict, split 11-1 for acquital. In Kidwell’s second trial, the jury deliberated eight hours before finding her not guilty, finding that she acted in self-defense when she shot Spellman.
In a postscript, the rightof-way dispute that provoked the tragedy was heard by Judge Shore Robertson in December. Robertson is expected to announce his ruling in January on the Kidwell’s request for a permanent injunction prohibiting improvements to the right-ofway that crosses their property.
