A western Wisconsin man is headed for a new trial after withdrawing his guilty plea in a 2017 double murder.
An Eau Claire County judge yesterday allowed Wayne Price to change his plea. He initially pleaded guilty to killing his sister and her boyfriend six years ago, but he now says his lawyers didn’t advise him of all of his options. Price is serving a 30-year sentence as part of that original plea deal. He will now be re-charged, and held on a million-dollars bond until prosecutors can set a trial date.
