MISSOULA — The trial of a Superior man charged with killing his wife and a bartender will be moved from Mineral County to Ravalli County.

Benson has pleaded not guilty to both those charges.
The Mineral County Court Clerk confirmed to MTN the trial will be held in Ravalli County after a motion to change venue was approved by the judge at a pre-trial conference on Thursday.
The trial is scheduled to begin on Oct. 18, 2024, in Hamilton.
