Maricco Knight, 22, was initially arrested and charged with his murder, but the prosecution declined to move ahead with the charges at the time. Knight has now been charged with charges relating to the murder, including soliciting murder and obstruction of justice.

Knight’s jury trial is set to begin on Feb. 5, 2018.

He is currently in the high intensity supervision program, and set to appear in court on Sept. 29 for a status hearing.
