Murder charge in slaying of missionary
James R. Boughton Jr., 19, was indicted on charges stemming from the Jan. 2 shooting that killed 21-year-old Morgan W. Young of Bountiful and wounded Joshua Heidbrink, 19, of Greeley, Colo.
Boughton also was indicted for the attempted malicious wounding of a third man, Gregory L. Banks Jr., and three related gun charges.
Chesapeake General District Judge Timothy S. Wright sent the charges to the grand jury following a preliminary hearing in June.
Heidbrink testified at the three-hour hearing that he and Young were going door-to-door proselytizing when they heard a shot and saw a man running toward them. The man shot him, then he saw Young on his knees looking up at the shooter, heard a pop, then saw Young fall forward. He did not identify the shooter at the hearing.
Boughton is scheduled to stand trial Oct. 31 and is being held in the Chesapeake City Jail.
