CHEYENNE, Wyo. (AP) - A judge has dismissed the case against a man charged in connection with the death of a 19-year-old man found dead in a reservoir in southeast Wyoming.
Circuit Judge Denise Nau (NOW) on Tuesday threw out a single charge of accessory after the fact against 21-year-old Austin Aranda of Cheyenne. Prosecutors accused Aranda of driving the murder suspect out of Cheyenne after the killing.
KGAB-AM reports that the judge ruled there wasn’t probable cause to continue Aranda’s case.
