Supreme Court Reverses Murder Indictment Dismissal
The South Carolina Supreme Court reversed a trial court ruling that dismissed Troy Chapman’s murder indictment for a speedy trial violation. Chapman, 41, of Greer, was accused in the 1979 death of Bill Queen, 49, of Lyman, after initial charges of assault and battery with intent to kill. Queen’s girlfriend testified she saw Chapman over the victim and heard gunshots, prompting Chapman’s renewed arrest in September 1984.
