Kidnap suspect's lawyers seek delay

Lawyers representing former University of Illinois graduate student Brendt Christensen plan to request that his trial be delayed so they can prepare their defense. Christensen, 28, is charged with kidnapping visiting Chinese scholar Zhang Yingying, who remains missing and is presumed dead.

Christensen's trial was set to begin on Sept 12. But Evan Bruno, one of three lawyers representing him, said on Thursday that they plan to file a motion asking the court to push the date back.

Bruno said they needed more time to review the huge amount of evidence received from the government - more than 1,000 pages of police reports from federal and state law-enforcement, along with several terabytes of video.
