Jan. 25—Several ongoing cases of sexual offenses were set for trial last week by Laurel Circuit Judge Michael O. Caperton.

Jerry Wayne Robinson, 48, of Sharon Court in London, will face a June 7 jury trial from a 2020 indictment charging him with seven counts of third-degree rape, seven counts of third-degree sodomy and six counts of use of a minor in a sexual performance.

The indictment charges Robinson with having sexual intercourse and deviant sexual intercourse with the 14-year-old child from March through August 2020.

In another case, Michael Hunter Rowland, 53, of Timberland Circle in London, is charged with first-degree rape of the child, and was arrested on Oct. 6, 2020. A trial date in the case has been set several times but was delayed.

An April 11 trial was set for 44-year-old Alex Wade Hundley of Hundley Road in London. Hundley was indicted in June last year for third-degree rape, first-degree strangulation, intimidating a witness, second-degree sexual abuse and third-degree terroristic threatening. The rape charge involves an incident which took place on November 5, 2021, with a 14 year-old child. On March 7, 2022, Hundley then allegedly strangled and threatened the child and intimidated the child as a witness in a court proceeding.
