Hearing reset in mosque blaze

Associated Press

TOLEDO – A federal court hearing in Ohio has been pushed back for a DeKalb County man who wants to withdraw his guilty plea to starting a fire at a mosque near Toledo.

Randy Linn of St. Joe was to be in court Thursday morning in Toledo, but the hearing on whether he can change his plea has been moved to next week.

Linn asked to take back his guilty plea in January, saying he made a mistake and was depressed when he pleaded guilty just three months ago.

Prosecutors say he broke into the Islamic Center of Greater Toledo last fall and lit a fire that caused extensive damage.
