Contested omnibus date set for Bemidji man charged with manslaughter

BEMIDJI—More than three months after his original omnibus hearing was scheduled, a Bemidji man charged with two counts of second-degree manslaughter in connection with the death of his foster child appeared briefly Monday in Beltrami County Court.

Nathan Daniel Jackson, 39, the foster father to 2-year-old Kira Friedman at the time of her drowning death June 5, is now set to appear in court Jan. 17 for a contested omnibus hearing. This is the fourth time Jackson's omnibus hearing has been pushed to a later date.
