Michael Quigley, 35, has been bound over for trial in Oakland County Circuit Court. Quigley is charged with shooting his wife and her male friend.
Quigley is charged with eight felony counts, including two for assault with intent to murder, as the prime suspect in the Nov. 14 shooting at an apartment complex in Ortonville. He allegedly shot his wife in the back of her head and her friend in the eye that evening, though both survived the incident.
The following night and day saw a manhunt that lasted near 24 hours and involved deputies from every Oakland County Sheriff’s substation. Quigley had fled the scene and was found the following day by a Brandon Township resident in his van, where he was arrested.
Quigley was ordered a psychological evaluation and was found competent to stand trial in January. Judge Kelley Kostin of Clarkston’s 52-2 district court bound Quigley over on Feb. 21. Arraignment before Judge Phyllis McMillen of Oakland County Circuit Court is scheduled for March 8.
