 A convicted murderer is changing his plea.

 Nikko Jenkins is set to be back in Douglas County Court on Friday.

 His defense counsel has filed a motion to withdraw his plea. Jenkins pleaded no contest to killing four people in a vicious spree in  August of  2013.

 A judge immediately found him guilty.

Just last month, a judge found Jenkins mentally competent for the death penalty phase of his case.

Currently, the death penalty in Nebraska is on-hold.
