Tran Jury Trial Set For October

A five-day jury trial is on the court calendar for October in the case of a Rhinelander-area woman accused in the death of her 20-month old stepson.

29-year-old Ellen Tran was in court Thursday with her attorney for a status conference. A jury trial was scheduled by Oneida County Judge Patrick O'Melia for October 22 through October 26. Jury selection was will begin on October 19. She is free on bail.

Tran was accused after her stepson died last April in their town of Newbold home from what officials allege was blunt force trauma to the head.

The child's father, 41-year-old Trung Tran, is accused of alleged child neglect and failing to prevent harm to a child. He has a court date in May for a motion hearing.
