Trial for a Harrison County man charged in connection with a fatal crash on Interstate 80 in Cass County last year, is still set to begin next Tuesday (April 26th), in Atlantic. A pre-trial conference for 50-year old Paul Marshall, of Modale, was held Wednesday, during which the defense presented a motion to suppress certain evidence. Unless a plea is entered prior to, or at the beginning of his trial next week, jury selection will begin. Cass County Attorney Dave Wiederstein said Wednesday, the trial is likely to “optimistically” last about one or two days.

Marshall is charged with Vehicular Homicide by Operating Under the Influence, in connection with a crash that happened in May 2015 on I-80 near the 54-mile marker off-ramp, in Cass County. Authorities said Marshall was driving his pickup westbound in the eastbound lane when the vehicle collided with an eastbound car driven by University of Nebraska/Lincoln Women’s soccer coach Peter Underwood, of Lincoln, NE., who was traveling on a recruiting trip.

Marshall faces up to 25-years in prison if convicted.
