FORT WAYNE, Ind. -- Another suspect is set to go to trial for the Richmond Hill explosion in 2012.

Bob Leonard is expected in Fort Wayne for a pre-trial conference on charges of murder and arson for his role in the blast in 2012.

He is the next person to face trial after his brother, Mark Ray Leonard, was given a life sentence after being found guilty on all charges against him in July.
