Judge orders suspects accused of killing Dothan businessman to remain locked up.
DOTHAN, Ala. - Houston County District Judge Benjamin Lewis has denied bond for two suspects facing charges in the fatal shooting of a Dothan businessman.
However, Telfair and McWaters’s attorneys believe the criminal case is based almost entirely on circumstantial evidence. Blount, per pretrial hearing testimony, used a racial slur during a phone conversation with his girlfriend and because her speaker was on, others overheard. Blount’s phone conversation occurred as that girlfriend, with whom he had argued that night, was among a group that gathered on September 3 to watch college football.A few hours afterwards, Telfair allegedly asked his friend, Koston McWaters, who also attended the get-together, to drive him to Blount’s home.
Dothan Police Violent Crimes Investigator Morgan Owens testified that Telfair shot Blount several times.
