A Scott City dentist charged with two felony counts of child endangerment will appear in New Madrid County circuit court June 28. Gary L. Riddle appeared in Scott County circuit court Dec. 22, at which time his case was moved to New Madrid County. Scott County Prosecuting Attorney Paul Boyd, still prosecuting the case, could not be reached for comment Thursday about why the change of venue was requested.

The charges stem from an incident May 19 when Riddle allegedly encouraged two children under 17 to jump off the roof of his residence and into a swimming pool.
