Bond Denied for Teen Suspect in Ridgeland Man’s Murder

RIDGELAND, SC—No bond for the 16 year-old boy charged for the shooting, stabbing, and beating death of an 85 year-old Ridgeland man in July 2008.

Fourteenth Circuit Court Solicitor Duffie Stone said he cannot imagine a more dangerous individual or flight risk than Breon Alexandre.

Proctor Bright was a well-known mechanic and author in Jasper County. His friends described him as the nicest man you could ever meet.

Alexandre is set to go before a grand jury later this month.

The case is expected to be tried in November.
