WAUPACA (NBC 26) — The jury deliberations for a decades-old double-homicide case in Waupaca are underway this morning.
Tony Haase is accused of killing Timothy Mumbrue and Tanna Togstad in 1992.
Court was set to resume at 8 AM Friday, but jurors returned to the courtroom at 8:45 to begin watching the video interview that investigators conducted with Haase at the Waupaca County Sheriff's Office.
The video is several hours long, and we hope to learn more about what Haase has told authorities.
Right now, jurors are watching video where investigators are telling Haase his DNA evidence is a 100% match to the DNA found on Togstad's body.
Prosecutors charged Haase in 2022 with killing a woman and her boyfriend over 30 years ago in apparent revenge for a snowmobile accident.
Fifty-two-year-old Tony Haase faces two counts of first-degree intentional homicide in connection with the stabbing deaths of Tanna Togstad and Timothy Mumbrue in March 1992. According to the criminal complaint, Tongstad's father was involved in a snowmobile accident in 1977 that left Haase's father dead.
NBC26's MacLeod Hageman is in the Waupaca County Courthouse, and he will report more details as they become available.
