The man accused of stabbing four high schoolers, killing one at a Shelton house party is back in the spotlight. Raul Valle will be back in court next month after the state filed amended charges. Valle killed Fairfield Prep student Jimmy McGrath in 2022 but over the summer the jury failed to reach a verdict leading to a mistrial. To get legal perspective on the case, we go to Attorney Bill Bloss. Bill is not at all connected to or involved in this case but has been providing legal expertise on this case to our WICC audience.
