The trial is set for the two people accused of killing and beheading an Altoona man last spring.
A judge yesterday said Tracey Clark and Brandon Gaston will go on trial in March of next year. They are accused of killing, then chopping 79-year-old Dennis Schattie’s head off. His body was found in Illinois last April. Both are facing life sentences if convicted. The judge said he expects the trial to take a month.
