(KAIR)--A jury trail has been set for an Atchison woman charged in connection with an Atchison County crash last August that claimed the life of her 17-month-old son.
28-year-old Maria Papalas pleaded not guilty Wednesday in Atchison County District Court to felony charges on first-degree murder, fleeing or attempting to elude a police officer, aggravated endangering a child and interference with law enforcement, along with four misdemeanor counts.
According to court documents, a five-day jury trial was set, beginning June 9th.
Authorities say Papalas was attempting to flee from an Atchison County Sheriff's deputy when she crashed her vehicle August 25, killing her son, who was a passenger in the vehicle.
Papalas remains in the Atchison County Jail, held on a $500,000 bond.
