High Court to Review Denial of Bail for Hoover Murder Suspect

The Virginia Supreme Court agreed to review Circuit Judge Elliott D. Marshall’s ruling denying bail to Otha T. Howard 35 one of two men charged in the Hoover murders. Justice Carrico set the hearing for 9 30 a.m. Wednesday in Fairfax County. Howard’s lawyers argued no evidence links him to the killings and the trial judge had power to grant bond. The court ordered Sheriff DeHaven to produce Howard in Fairfax County. The case centers on whether direct evidence warrants bail denial for a capital offense.
