Foley To Be Tried

A Branch County man accused in the shooting death of his wife will stand trial. A judge ruled yesterday that there is sufficient evidence to try Tom Foley for the murder of Dee Dee Foley, a popular Union City teacher who was gunned down in her home near Girard in February. Foley’s attorney argued his client is accused simply because police failed to find any other suspects. The Branch County Prosecutor says several other leads in the case were investigated by detectives and eliminated.
