- Judge denies motion to dismiss charges against Gary Marken in Oxford Center explosion case
A judge denied a motion to dismiss charges against Gary Marken in the Oxford Center explosion case, where he faces second-degree murder and involuntary manslaughter for the death of 5-year-old Thomas Cooper. The defense argues he wasn’t a decision-maker, while prosecutors claim he enforced safety protocols despite knowing risks, with the judge stating the jury must determine his state of mind, and the defense plans to appeal, pausing the trial.
