Authorities have arrested a man in the
shooting death of a witness in a Columbia County murder case.
Officials say 32-year-old William Cooksey Roberson is jailed on
a first-degree murder charge in the death of 35-year-old Roger
Williams, 35. Roberson`s bond was set at $150,000.
Williams was a potential witness in a case against 17-year-old
Justin Vansickle, who is charged with the May 12th murder of
42-year-old Mark Randall Byrd at Byrd`s home in the Ebenezer
community.
Sheriff Calvin Knighton said investigators have not determined,
however, if Williams` shooting death had anything to do with the
Vansickle case.
