Maurice Houle, accused in the ’18 death of 3-year-old Matthew Maison, has filed multiple motions ahead of his October trial in St. Clair County. Houle’s attorney is asking the court to dismiss the murder charge, block certain witnesses, and exclude evidence from a search warrant nine days after Matthew’s death. The defense also wants Houle’s April statements and help from prosecutors to subpoena witnesses excluded. Court hearings for these motions are scheduled for Sept. 2nd, 8th, and 29th. Houle and Amanda Maison both face murder charges in the case.
