(KNZA)--The preliminary hearing for a Hiawatha man charged with alleged sex and drug offenses has been postponed again.

48-year-old Jeremy Stover had been scheduled to appear in a Brown County courtroom Wednesday morning for his preliminary hearing. However, his court-appointed attorney, John Kurth, of Atchison, requested another continuance to review additional reports and video interviews

According to court documents, the hearing was rescheduled for the morning of June 7.

Stover has been charged with eight counts—including three felony counts of promoting the sale of sexual relations, three misdemeanor counts of sexual battery, a felony count of distribution of opiates and misdemeanor count of possession of a depressant.

He was arrested in February following an investigation by the Brown County Sheriff's Office.

Stover remains free on a $50,000 bond.
