Vennes/Fry Trial May be Postponed Beyond February 12, 2013

Joe Friedberg, in an August 29, 2012 letter addressed to the court stated the following (emphasis is mine):
...based on the Venne's continuance motion, trial in this matter will be rescheduled from October 1, 2012 and will now commence February 11, 2013, or later.
The Vennes home in Shorewood, Minnesota was raided September 24, 2008, nearly four years ago. Tom Petters was convicted in 2009.

Friedberg also says in his letter:

"The undersigned believes the ends of justice served by granting of the continuance in this matter outweigh the best interest of the public and the defendant in a speedy trial."

The public? Does that include the investors?
