A Chatham woman charged with deliberately setting a 120-unit Chatham housing complex on fire will be going to trial.
Erin Ott, 31, will be back in Chatham Ontario Court of Justice by video next Tuesday to set a trial date.
Ott was charged with arson with disregard for human life following an early morning fire on August 25, 2024 that displaced dozens of residents from their homes at 99 McNaughton Avenue West in Chatham.
Ott, who is also facing 15 counts of fraud related to another matter, was released on bail from the jail in Windsor in late October 2024, but was arrested again after breaching her bail conditions.
She remains behind bars.
Ott's co-accused, 48-year-old Leonard Greason of London, is also facing a charge of arson with disregard for human life in connection with the fire.
He remains in custody as well.
A publication ban prohibits the publication of any evidence heard in the two cases.
