Melissa Huckaby appeared in court on Friday and again delayed entering a plea in court.
Huckaby is charged with the abduction, rape, and murder of 8-year-old Sandra Cantu, along with a number of new charges.
These charges include the alleged drugging of two people: a man and a 7-year-old child.
Huckaby is charged with “furnishing a harmful substance,” by either food or drink on Mar. 2, to a man named Daniel Plowman.
She is also charged with felony child endangerment and “furnishing a harmful substance” to a girl only identified as “Jane M. Doe.”
Court documents say Huckaby “willfully and unlawfully mingled a harmful substance with food or drink” in both of these cases.
According to ABC News, “Jane M. Doe’s” older sister said the girl went missing in Jan. and when she returned home, “Her speech was slurred… like she had a really bad lisp. And she would cry a lot like something was wrong with her."
"She couldn’t stand up without help. She couldn’t walk. Every time she tried to walk, she would fall. So they took her to the hospital, and the hospital told us that she had muscle relaxants in her system,” said the girl's sister.
Friday was the third time Huckaby appeared in court without entering a plea. Her attorney, Sam Behar, said he received 1,000 pages of evidence on Thursday and was not ready to enter a plea in the case.
Huckaby’s hearing has now been delayed until June 12.
