(KNZA)--The jury trial for an Atchison man facing sixteen child sex-related charges in Doniphan County has been pushed back again. 

The trial for 42-year-old Heath Umphenhour, which had been scheduled to begin this week in Doniphan County District Court, has been continued to May.  The trial is now scheduled to begin May 9th.    

Umphenhour  is charged with multiple counts of aggravated indecent liberties with a child, sexual exploitation of a child, aggravated criminal sodomy and attempted breach of privacy of a child or children.  He pleaded “ not guilty” to the charges last February.

The charges stem from alleged sex offenses involving three girls under the age of 14 occurring between March 11th, 2011 and November 6th, 2013.

Umphenhour was arrested in July 2013 following an investigation by the Doniphan County Sheriff’s Department and Kansas Bureau of Investigation.
