The man accused of stabbing a popular schoolteacher to death in a downtown Naperville bar earlier this year will return to court in early February 2013, after a holdup in pending paperwork delayed his trial this week.
Danlei Olaska, 27, of Naperville is charged with murder after allegedly stabbing to death Shaun R. Wild, 24, also from Naperville, during a fight at Frankie’s Blue Room on Chicago Avenue on Feb. 4. On hand in Judge Kathryn Creswell’s Wheaton courtroom Monday morning were family members of both Olaska and Wild.
Creswell agreed to the request from Olaska’s attorney, Brian Telander, for a postponement of the trial to 9 a.m. Feb. 5. The additional time, Telander said, will enable him to complete preparations for the defense process.
“We’re getting close to having everything,” Telander said.
