One of the men charged in the 2021 murder of a Dodgeville woman had his first court hearing Tuesday. 51 year old Aric Way was given a $250,000 cash bail. He was charged last Friday with first-degree intentional homicide for the death of his mother. As a part of his bail conditions, Way cannot have contact with his son, Philip Schmidt-Way, who is also charged with first-degree intentional homicide for the same woman’s death.
