A trial date is now set for the man accused of killing a SUNY Potsdam student from Putnam County.

Michael Snow, of Massena, will face charges that include second-degree murder when his trial starts Aug. 21.

These developments came from the Saint Lawrence County Court clerk's office.

Snow, 32, is accused of fatally shooting 21-year-old Elizabeth Howell, of Patterson.

The School of Music student was walking on a road, not far from campus when she was killed last February.

A motive has not been released.
