Preliminary Hearing for Diener Murder Suspect

A preliminary hearing was held yesterday afternoon for Roger Clark, one of two suspects in the 2009 murder of Lyon Village resident Carl Diener.

The court found probable cause and ordered the Clark held pending an indictment by a grand jury. If an indictment is handed down, a court date is expected to be set on Sept. 22.

Prosecutors say that a trial in the case would likely take place early next year.
