HUDSON, Wis. (AP) — The father accused of killing his three young daughters at the girls’ western Wisconsin home is back in court.
Among the issues expected to be addressed at a hearing for Aaron Schaffhausen in St. Croix County Circuit Court Monday is a videotaped police interrogation and what jurors may or may not be able to see from the 3 ½-hour interview.
The 35-year-old carpenter from Minot, N.D., is accused of killing 5-year-old Cecilia, 8-year-old Sophie and 11-year-old Amara Schaffhausen at their home in River Falls last July during a visit with his daughters.
The Star Tribune reports the home owned by Schaffhausen where the girls died is now in foreclosure.
