Holland murder suspect due for court pretrial hearing

HOLLAND, Mass. (WWLP) - A man accused of murder in Holland is due back in court on Tuesday.

Jonathan Poirier has been held without a right for bail since early March when he was arrested. He was charged for the murder after an investigation sparked when the body of 29-year-old Austin Schepper was found in Holland on February 26th. 

Following an investigation involving multiple agencies, including the State Police Detective Units assigned to both the Hampden and Worcester DA’s Offices, as well as Sturbridge and Holland Police, Poirier was identified as the suspect and subsequently charged.

Now, Poirier is due back in court Tuesday morning for a pretrial hearing in Palmer District Court.
