The trial of an Oklee (MN) man charged with killing his wife in July 2021 is underway in Pennington County District Court.
Eric Reinbold went into hiding after the incident and wasn’t arrested until early August when a trail camera captured his whereabouts near property owned by his parents.
Opening arguments in the case were presented on Monday. The court calendar has nine days set aside for the trial.
Reinbold is charged with second degree murder. Lissette Reinbold suffered stab wounds to her neck…torso…and upper extremities. She was found by her children lying in the driveway of her home.
