Ex-Akron doctor's court appearance in wife's death rescheduled

By Associated Press

CLEVELAND: Prosecutors in Cleveland say a man accused of poisoning his wife will have to wait to make his first court appearance since returning to Ohio from Europe.

Yazeed Essa gave up a long extradition fight and returned to the U.S. late last week from the Mediterranean island of Cyprus. The former Akron General Medical Center physician is charged with aggravated murder in the 2005 cyanide death of his wife, Rosemarie.

Essa was to go before a Cuyahoga County judge this morning, but the prosecutor's office says the proceeding has been rescheduled for Wednesday.

The 40-year-old Essa is accused of giving his wife a pill she thought was calcium but was really cyanide. He disappeared in March 2006 and was arrested later in Cyprus.

Essa faces a life sentence if convicted.
