Man Accused Of Marino Killing Won’t Waive Right To Preliminary Hearing

MADISON, Wis. — The former University of Wisconsin student charged with the killing of Joel Marino will not waive his right to a preliminary hearing, according to his attorney.

Lawyers on Wednesday will set a date to determine whether there’s probable cause to put Adam Peterson on trial on a murder charge.

Peterson’s attorney, Dennis Burke, said that hearing will likely be set for the week after next, WISC-TV reported.
