COEUR d'ALENE — After a failed attempt at mediation, and almost two months of inactivity, a Coeur d'Alene man accused of shooting a pastor multiple times will be back in Kootenai County District Court this month.

Kyle Odom, 30, faces up to 30 years in prison if convicted on charges associated with the shooting of Pastor Tim Remington in the parking lot of The Altar Church in Coeur d'Alene on March 6. Kootenai County Prosecutor Barry McHugh told The Press Friday that a status conference in the case has been scheduled before Judge Timothy Van Valin on Dec. 15.

"I anticipate the judge will schedule a preliminary hearing, or determine what needs to happen next," McHugh added.

After allegedly shooting Remington following church services on the afternoon of March 6, Odom reportedly drove to Spokane before heading south to Boise. On March 7, Odom boarded a commercial flight from the Boise Airport to Washington, D.C., and was seen throwing flash drives and other items over the White House fence prior to being arrested by Secret Service agents.

Odom signed a waiver of extradition in the Superior Court of the District of Columbia on April 6, and was escorted to Kootenai County by the U.S. Marshals Service. He was booked into the Kootenai County jail on May 6 and is still being held at the facility on a $500,000 bond.

Although he was originally charged with attempted murder, prosecutors amended the charges against Odom to aggravated battery, which carries the same maximum sentence of 15 years in prison. Prosecutors also attached a felony deadly weapons enhancement to the charge, which carries an addition 15-year sentence if Odom is convicted.
