Wong Hearing Rescheduled to Friday

Glenn Wong is charged in the murder of his wife in February.

Glenn Wong was scheduled to appear in Summit County Common Pleas Court on Monday morning at 9 a.m. but it has been rescheduled again.

A bailiff in Judge Paul Gallagher's court said the hearing will be on Friday at 2 p.m. The hearing is to assess Wong's mental state as the trial moves forward.

Wong, who faces murder charges in the stabbing death of his wife Tami Wong, appeared in court in early May. His attorney, Brian M. Pierce, requested the insanity evaluation be conducted before the court proceedings continue.

Wong was indicted in March by the grand jury on two counts of aggravated murder, one count of murder, one count of kidnapping, one count of felonious assault and one count of domestic violence, according to court records.

According to the police report, officers were called to 3180 Abrams Drive at 7:06 a.m. Feb. 24 to deal with a domestic violence in progress.

The police found Tami Wong in a first-floor bedroom with multiple stab wounds. She was taken to Cleveland Clinic in Twinsburg, where she died.
