DEFOREST, Wis. — The trial of a DeForest man accused of stalking and planning to kill a former high school classmate has been rescheduled for late August, online court records show.
Gabriel Savage, 20, faces half a dozen felony charges, including four counts of attempted first-degree intentional homicide and one count each of attempted first-degree sexual assault involving the use of a dangerous weapon and attempted first-degree child sexual assault. He has pleaded not guilty to the charges.
During a status conference hearing Thursday, Savage’s trial, which had been scheduled to start in late January, was pushed back to Aug. 22-25. Jury selection is now set for Aug. 21, according to court records.
Police first arrested Savage in March while he was reportedly sitting in a vehicle outside the classmate’s home dressed in all black and carrying handcuffs and ammunition. After he posted bond in June, police re-arrested him on stiffer charges.
