WAUSEON -- More than a year after an appaels court reversed a judge's decision to drop charges against a former Maumee man accused of killing a teen in 1985, the trial will finally begin after jury selection on Monday.

According to court documents, Walter Zimbeck, 43, is charged with murder and aggravated murder of 14-year-old Lori Ann Hill.

Hill disappeared in October of 1985 and her body was discovered four days later in a wooded area in Wauseon. Zimbeck was reportedly a former boyfriend of Hill.

He was questioned by the police after the murder, but was not formerly charged until 2009.
