A court proceeding regarding a case of a Marshall man accused of murdering a Slater resident last year is set for this week.
According to online court documents, Adam McAlister is facing a Class A Felony for Second-Degree Murder and an Unclassified Felony for Armed Criminal Action for allegedly killing 31-year-old Lance Gibson on March 9, 2018.
Bond has been set at $500,000 cash only. Motions made by McAlister’s attorney to have his bond reduced have been denied by the court.
McAlister, who is now 32 years old, entered a plea of not guilty in June 2018 and May 2019.
McAlister’s jury trial was scheduled to be held in March, but was canceled at that time. His next hearing is scheduled to be held at 9 a.m. on Tuesday, October 15, at Saline County Circuit Court.
