A trial date has been set for a mother accused of locking her son in a box-like structure.
Tracy Ferriter went before a Palm Beach County judge on Tuesday with her defense attorney Marc Shiner.
He had told the judge last month that he wouldn't be ready to go to trial by the previously set January date, so Shiner withdrew from the case. But in a hearing on Tuesday, the attorney said he could be ready come July, so the judge set the start date for July 12th.
Tracy's husband Tim Ferriter was convicted in October for child abuse, child neglect and false imprisonment. He was later sentenced to five years in prison.
His wife faces the same charges.
