A Philadelphia judge has ruled that an Amtrak engineer must face a trial for a fatal derailment in 2015.
According to Judge Kathryn Streeter Lewis, charges of involuntary manslaughter and reckless endangerment have been reinstituted against Brandon Bostian.
Prosecutors added that a previous judge had dismissed the criminal charges.
Judge Thomas Gehret made that decision last September, citing evidence which suggested the derailment was not caused by a criminal act.
