A Port Huron father accused of killing one child and badly hurting two others will face trial this summer. Forty‑five‑year‑old Jeffery Smerer appeared in court Monday after months of delay for a psychiatric review. A plea hearing is set for May 26, with trial starting June 2nd. Prosecutors say Smerer shot his three children at their Glenview Court home last September, hours before being sentenced for indecent exposure. He now faces 10 felony charges—including open murder and child abuse—that could send him to prison for life.
