During a status conference on Friday afternoon, Feb. 19 in Crawford County Circuit Court, District Attorney Luke Steiner and defense attorney Jeremiah Wolfgang Meyer-O’Day said they have been communicating with each other and a resolution to the Chase Harville homicide case might be forthcoming. 

The attorneys said there may be a resolution to the case within the next few weeks or there may not. If there is no resolution, the case will proceed towards a trial.

Judge Robert VanDeHey set another status conference for April 1 at 1:30 p.m. to find out if the case will proceed towards a trial or whether it will be resolved.

Harville, 29, Prairie du Chien, appeared in court via video conference. He has been charged with first degree reckless homicide, with a repeater modifier, in the July 10 death of a 3-year-old town of Eastman boy. The boy was under Harville’s care at a residence in Eastman Township.

Separate cases

In two separate cases, Harville is also facing charges of possession of a firearm by a convicted felon, misdemeanor possession of drug paraphernalia, and misdemeanor battery, with a modifier of domestic abuse.

In January, Judge VanDeHey said that if the case were to go to trial, the trial would probably be for five days. Nothing regarding the length of any such trial has been set, however, and the matter is still up for possible consideration at a later date.

Harville is being held in the Oneida County Jail.
