One charge dismissed in local murder case
A Butler County Common Pleas Court Judge Tuesday, March 9, dismissed charges against one of two men accused in the September stabbing death of 15-year-old Amber Robinson.
Reporter Lauren Pack has been in court since the trail of Khrendon Gray and Rashon Martin began Monday, March 8. Here’s the story from Tuesday’s session, when the charge of complicity to murder against Martin was dismissed.
Background
On Thursday, Sept. 10, West Chester police were called out to the North Pointe Townhomes off Muhlhauser Road not once, but twice.
After arriving just after 7 p.m. that night on a reported disturbance, they left the scene following an investigation they said revealed no crimes had been committed.
About a half hour later, they returned to the complex to find out the situation had escalated, and that 15-year-old Amber Robinson had been stabbed to death.
Apparently, those warnings weren’t heard by the right folks months ago, as tempers flared again after court on Monday, March 8.
The prosecution rested its case Tuesday, March 9, and the trial will continue Wednesday morning.
