A judge made a ruling Tuesday for Brad Bartholomew on his request for access to a computer to review evidence in his case.

The judge granted Bartholomew permission to use a computer to review discovery related to the charges against him.

His defense argued that reviewing thousands of pages of documents by hand was inefficient and increased the risk of information being leaked.

Bartholomew and his wife, Cortney, are both charged in connection with the killing of Rebecca Park and her unborn baby.

While Bartholomew did not appear in court on Tuesday, both he and Cortney are expected back in court Sept. 18 at 9 a.m. for a preliminary hearing.

Family remembers Rebecca Park on her birthday, their first without her​

Family and close friends gathered Wednesday at a cemetery near in Lake City to celebrate what would have been the 23rd birthday of Rebecca Park, who was killed alongside her unborn baby in November of last year.

Stephanie Park, Rebecca’s adoptive mother, organized the memorial gathering featuring cake and a balloon release near where Rebecca grew up.

The family chose balloons over sky lanterns due to concerns over wildfire risks during the summer, focusing the day on celebrating Rebecca’s life and summer memories rather than the circumstances of her death.

This week marks what the family calls “birthday week,” as Rebecca’s brother and sister also celebrate birthdays during the same timeframe. The family plans to maintain their tradition of gathering each year. “I just I want everybody to remember her birthday and not the other day,” Stephanie Park said. “Her birthday would would have been a happy day. And we always celebrated her birthday. She always had cake and balloons and a theme and friends and stuff. And the whole family always comes together for birthdays. And this is something we call birthday week because we have multiple multiple of her.”

Stephanie Park recalled her daughter’s affection for the summer season and outdoor activities. “I’m choosing to remember how she was when she was alive. And the joy that she had for outside. And flowers and butterflies and just all this good stuff for summer. She loved swimming and and going camping,” Park said. “I know she’s up there enjoying her baby and having even the nicest birthday she can.”
