(La Porte, IN) - Judah Morgan’s mother, Mary Yoder, appeared in court Friday and received a continuance on her trial date.

Yoder faces two counts of neglecting a dependent, as well as failure to report abuse, all related to the October 2021 torture and murder of her son Judah at the hands of his father, Alan Morgan.

Yoder was scheduled to go on trial in La Porte Circuit Court on January 9. However, after Friday’s appearance, she is now set only for a status hearing on February 10.

Alan Morgan was recently sentenced to 70 years in prison for his actions.
