Not Guilty Pleas Entered For Central Wisconsin Man In Fatal Crash Case Submitted: 03/19/2010
WAUSAU - Not guilty pleas have been entered for a central Wisconsin man accused in a fatal traffic crash that killed his wife and 12-year-old daughter and injured his son.

Prosecutors say 40-year-old Travis Ploman was intoxicated when he drove his family home from a party last October and lost control of their vehicle in Marathon County.

Forty-year-old Jennifer Ploman and daughter, Erin, died when the vehicle overturned on Interstate 39 near Mosinee.

Ten-year-old Jordan was injured.

The Kronenwetter man and former Mosinee School Board member stood mute in court Wednesday where the pleas to homicide by intoxicated use of a vehicle were entered on his behalf.

The Wausau Daily Herald says Ploman waived his right to a preliminary hearing.
