DeKALB | One of the men charged in the April 5 shooting of NIU linebacker Devon Butler appeared in court Wednesday for a status hearing.

Former NIU student Mark Orozco is charged with attempted murder, aggravated battery with a firearm, aggravated discharge of a firearm and the unlawful delivery of cannabis.

Orozco’s attorney, William Glisson of Batavia, signed off on a substitution of attorney motion. According to the DeKalb Circuit Clerk’s office, attorney Todd Cohen has taken over as Orozco’s defense attorney.

Cohen also filed a motion for discovery. Donald Henderson, director of Student Legal Assistance, said a motion for discovery is a motion made for any information pertaining to the case that the defense could use at trial.

DeKalb Police said Orozco fired four shots into an apartment at 1009 Aspen Court. Butler was in the apartment visiting, and was hit in the back. The other former NIU student charged in the case, Richard Van Arsdale III, was the alleged driver of the truck. Van Arsdale is also charged in the shooting and has a status hearing scheduled for Monday morning.

Orozco’s next court appearance is scheduled for May 9 at the DeKalb County Courthouse.
