Va. granted the government's motion in limine, allowing the use statements of some unavailable witnesses, and denied a defense motion for a separate trial, in the case of defendants Charles Gilmore and Walter Church, accused of various federal crimes in connection with the 1989 murders of three people in Pocahontas, Virginia.
