TV weather guy’s sexual assault trial delayed

November 10, 2009 By WRN Contributor

A hunting mishap causes a delay in a notable trial.

Former madison TV weatherman Jeff Smith was set to stand trial today on sexual assault charges in Sauk County, where he lives. Prosecutors say he “groped” a young girl in the fall of ’07. By the way, Smith’s attorney, Steve Eisenburg of Madison, strongly denies the allegations.

Well, the trial is now either going to take place next January or February as an investigator that interviewed Smith on the allegations is not able to take the stand. It’s because he fell out of a tree stand, causing substantial injuries. Smith was removed from the air shortly after the allegations surfaced a year ago.
