A court hearing was held Thursday for the man accused of killing three people in a Danville pawn shop.

Kenneth Keith is charged in the September 2013 killing of Michael and Angela Hockensmith, the owners of ABC Gold Games & More. and customer Daniel Smith.

Keith, a local pastor, was arrested a few weeks later.

Thursday's hearing was scheduled back in November after Keith's attorneys argued that some of the evidence collected - including surveillance video showing Keith at a nearby business - should not be allowed in court.

No decision was made today.

The defense will be filing a brief within the next 30 days, which prosecutors will then have another 30 days to respond to.

Prosecutors have said they believe this trial will start sometime next spring.
