(Des Moines, IA) -- The trial of former Des Moines Public Schools Superintendent Ian Roberts is being postponed.
Roberts' trial had been set for December 1st of this year, but court records show Roberts' attorney requested to have the start date of the trial delayed, and a federal judge approved the request without objection from the prosecution. Court documents show Roberts' trial is now scheduled to start on March 2nd of next year.
Roberts faces multiple charges including being in the country illegally, illegal possession of firearms, and falsely claiming he was a U.S. citizen.
