Trial Of Man Charged In Iowa Girl's Death Set For August In Linn County

(Linn County, IA) -- The trial of a man accused of murdering a Davenport girl in 2020 has been set for August 8th in Linn County. Fifty-year-old Henry Dinkins is accused of kidnapping and murdering 10-year-old Breasia Terrell in July of 2020. Two fishermen found the girl's remains several months later in Clinton County. Dinkins' attorneys asked to have the trial moved from Scott County due to pretrial publicity.

Breasia Terrell spent the night with her half-brother, Detorious, at Dinkins' Davenport apartment on July 9, 2020. Dinkins is the father of Detorious. Detorious came home the next morning, but Breasia did not. She was reported missing July 10th.

Dinkins has pleaded not guilty to Terrell's murder.
