BOONE COUNTY, KY (FOX19) -

A Northern Kentucky murder suspect was back in court on Tuesday.

David Dooley is accused of killing Michelle Mockbee at Thermo Fischer Scientific in May of 2012. Dooley was a janitor there, and Mockbee worked in human resources.

Dooley and his family have said he is not responsible for her death.

On Tuesday, lawyers on both sides were in court for a motion hearing.

In December, Dooley's attorney, Eric Deters, said he reviewed the Bill of Particulars from prosecutors and argued there is no probable cause in the case.

Dooley's trial date is set for August 19th.
