LANSING, Mich. — Douglas Hill waived his right to a preliminary hearing on Friday, Sept. 20. Once the preliminary hearing is waived the case proceeds to a trial.
Douglas Hill is charged with murdering Danielle Steiner and her son Aubrey Hall in June of 2018.
According to court records, this is Hill's fourth felony firearm charge.
