OSSIPEE — Attorneys for Riley Hayes, the Jackson teenager accused of sexual assault, told a judge Thursday that his client is ready for trial, but they also asked the judge to have the trial involve a “view” of a residence even though the home has changed owners.

Riley Hayes, now 19, of Jackson was charged with aggravated felonious sexual assault in February 2021 in connection with an incident that allegedly took place Oct. 17, 2020, when the victim was “physically helpless to resist.”
