JERSEYVILLE, Ill. (AP) — The trial of a southern Illinois man charged with a woman’s murder is set to begin Monday, nearly ten years after she went missing.
The Alton Telegraph reports that Roger Carroll is charged with three counts of first-degree murder, concealing a homicide and aggravated kidnapping in 48-year-old Bonnie Woodward’s death. T
wo weeks have been reserved for the trial. Woodward was last seen in June 2010 outside her work, a nursing home in Alton. Authorities considered Carroll a suspect at the time of Woodward’s disappearance because fingerprints found on her truck matched his.
