2009-08-01
LOUISIVLLE, Ky. - A Kentucky man arrested in the slaying of a Wisconsin couple nearly 30 years ago has pleaded not guilty at his first court appearance. An officer pushed 76-year-old Edward W. Edwards into the hearing Saturday in a wheelchair with an oxygen tank. Edwards also had a cast on his left arm. Edwards is accused of killing 19-year-old high school sweethearts Tim Hack and Kelly Drew. The couple disappeared from a wedding reception Aug. 9, 1980. Two months later, searchers found their bodies in the countryside a few miles from the reception hall. Wisconsin investigators armed with a DNA match arrested Edwards on Thursday. He faces two counts of first-degree murder and life in prison if convicted. Edwards is being held in Louisville on $500,000 bail. His next hearing is Monday.
