When deputies approached an abandoned house in the area, they say Myles told them that he knew Jones and Lewis and that they weren’t in the residence. Further investigation determined that the two suspects were in the house, and authorities believed Myles intentionally misled them to cover for his associates.
After the two suspects were taken into custody, Jones was charged with murder, and Lewis was charged with tampering with evidence. They each appeared in court Monday morning. Jones was given a bond of $150,000, and Lewis was given a bond of $30,000.
Myles was released after being given a $100 bond.
