(MSC News)--A jury trial has been set for a Holton woman accused of stabbing a Holton man last year.

31-year-old Nicole Martinez pleaded not guilty last week in Jackson County District Court to a charge of attempted 2nd-degree murder.

The charge carries an alternative charge of aggravated battery.

The Holton Recorder reports a two-day trial was set, beginning August 13.

Martinez was arrested in February on a district court warrant following a joint investigation between the Jackson County Sheriff’s Office and Holton Police Department.

It’s alleged that Martinez, on November 26h, 2017, stabbed 28-year-old Cruz Ruiz at a Holton hotel.

Ruiz received hospital treatment for his non-fatal injuries.

Martinez remains free on a $50,000 bond.
