A hearing will be held next week to determine if there is probable cause that convicted murderer Gerald Turner is a sexually violent person. The hearing was scheduled after the Wisconsin attorney general’s office filed a petition last Friday requesting that Turner be held in an institution under a mental health commitment.

He was scheduled to be released this Thursday.
