Kody Roach pretrial hearing postponed

Roach arrested on murder charge in police shooting at Vixen

ORLANDO, Fla. – A pretrial hearing scheduled Friday for a man arrested in connection with a police shooting at an Orlando nightclub that left a woman dead was postponed.

Kody Roach was arrested on murder charges in 2014 in a shooting at the Vixen nightclub.

Roach did not fire any shots during the confrontation, but he was charged with murder after a bullet from an officer's gun struck and killed Maria Godinez, 22, an innocent witness.

The officer was cleared of wrongdoing.

If convicted, Roach faces life in prison.

It's not known when the hearing will be rescheduled.
