Published April 09, 2009 11:30 am - Suspect waives prelim in strangulations EL RENO, Okla. (AP) — An El Reno man accused in the strangulation deaths of his girlfriend and her four children has waived his right to a preliminary hearing. Canadian County Assistant District Attorney Paul Hesse said 26-year-old Joshua Durcho appeared in court Thursday and agreed to skip the preliminary hearing. Such hearings are held to determine whether there is adequate evidence to warrant a trial. Hesse said Durcho is to be arraigned on May 19 and will formally enter a plea then. Prosecutors are seeking the death penalty. The ex-convict is charged with five counts of first-degree murder in the January deaths of 25-year-old Summer Rust and her four young children.
