The defense attorney in the Ghost Ship warehouse trial is asking for a six-month delay. The lawyer for the warehouse’s creative director Max Harris filed a motion this week asking for the delay because of newly discovered evidence. Harris and the Oakland warehouse’s master tenant Derick Almena are charged for a fire during a music party that killed 36 people in 2016. The judge will hold a hearing on the motion today, as well as a defense motion to dismiss the charges on the grounds that potentially exonerating evidence was destroyed, lost or altered under the watch of prosecutors.
