The trial of former Kent State football safety Nate Holley began Wednesday morning with a pre-trial hearing ahead of his planned Jan. 24 court date.
Holley was arrested Nov. 4 for a first-degree kidnapping charge involving an unnamed female Kent State student. Holley allegedly held the student against her will at the Campus Pointe apartments the night before, according to the Portage County Sheriff's Office.
On Dec. 31 Holley was given an additional indictment on a second-degree charge of felonious assault. He appeared in court Jan. 10 for the charge.
In the pre-trial hearing, Portage County Court of Common Pleas Judge Laurie Pittman confirmed with attorneys that Holley's trial will begin on Tuesday.
