MAUSTON, Wis. -- A Tomah man will stand trial for a double homicide in Juneau County.

John Tetting Jr. waived his right to a preliminary hearing and was ordered to trial.

The judge also entered two not guilty pleas for Tetting when he stood silent in court on Wednesday.

Tetting is charged in the deaths of Joshua Alderman, 31, of La Crosse, and his girlfriend, Tabatha Nealy, 23, of Wisconsin Rapids.

A criminal complaint said that Tetting drove an accomplice, David Turner, to a remote location in the Town of Finley last March where Turner was to discuss a drug distribution conspiracy with Alderman. It said that Turner then shot and killed Alderman and Nealy.

Tetting is charged with being a party to second-degree reckless homicide.

Another court appearance is scheduled on Nov. 14.
