A motion hearing for a change of venue for one of the students charged in the April 1 disturbances will take place today.

Everett L. Owen is charged with the manufacture of explosive or inflammable substance.

Owen's attorney, Linda Wagoner, is seeking to move the case out of Tippecanoe County. She said the media attention given to the disturbances have created a "lynch mob atmosphere" in the county against anyone alleged to have participated in the illegal acts that occurred during the revelries.

She also said the infamous police Web site featuring photos of students alleged to have participated in criminal acts during the revelries added to the prejudicial atmosphere.
