Hearing in Holton Murder Case Postponed
04/16/2016

(KNZA)--The preliminary hearing for a Holton man accused of killing his wife has been pushed back.

Jackson County Attorney Shawna Miller says the hearing for 64-year-old George Fleshman Jr. was continued Thursday to June 8th.

Fleshman is charged with second-degree murder in the death of his 62-year-old wife, Elizabeth, at the couple’s residence last October.

Jackson County Sheriff Tim Morse says an autopsy shows she died due to trauma to the spleen.

Fleshman was arrested March 8th following an investigation by the Jackson County Sheriff’s Department.

He remains in the Jackson County Jail on a $200,000 bond.
