A preliminary hearing is set for tomorrow to determine if there is enough evidence in the case to turn Carol Weidman over to Circuit Court to stand trial on the murder charge.
Carol Weidman allegedly confessed to stabbing and strangling her mother, telling a Pearl City police officer that she felt she had to kill her mother before her mother killed her.
