weighing the third factor heavily in Mr. Berry’s favor because he asserted his speedy trial right on eight separate occasions over two years
finding incarceration for 720 days “necessarily impacted his employment opportunities, financial resources and association” thus weighing heavily in defendant’s favor
“[W]hen the delay is so protracted as to be presumptively prejudicial, inquiry into the other factors is required.”
