Mass slayings suspects held as jail terms rise
Two men tied to the January Hanafi Moslems killings in Washington are jailed in Jacksonville on $800000 bond each. John Wesley Griffis and James Christian, both black former Philadelphia residents, were arrested in a Jacksonville apartment and arraigned on murder charges alongside five others. The case and a related bank robbery probe connect to Kareem Abdul Jabbars Washington home where the seven victims, including five children, were killed.
