(KIMT-TV) MASON CITY, IA – On Tuesday, an order to cancel the trial for Maria Ohl was filed on Iowa Courts online.
Ohl was fired for allegedly mishandling information about the disappearance of KIMT anchor Jodi Huisentruit. The civil service commission upheld that firing last September. Ohl appealed that decision in November in 2011.
A new trial date was set for October 24th. A hearing between both parties is scheduled for next month. According to the Cerro Gordo county clerk of courts office, the cancellation is still pending and the trial could be continued to another date.
Anyone with information about Jodi’s case is encouraged to contact the Mason City Police Department at (641) 421-3636. Information may also be provided to Iowa DCI Special Agent Ryan Herman at rherman@dps.state.ia.us.
