    Two men are charged with murdering a Junction City woman to keep her from telling police about a drug trafficking operation. The indictment was unsealed today in U.S. District Court in Topeka.

    Grissom joined Junction City Police Chief Tim Brown and Geary County Attorney Steve Opat at a news conference in Junction City today (Monday) to announce the unsealing of the indictment.

    Virok Webb, 34, and Marcus Roberson,29, both of Junction City, are charged with killing Crystal Fisher, who was found shot to death March 3rd of 2010, in Junction City. The indictment alleges Webb and Roberson planned and carried out the murder to prevent Fisher from telling law enforcement about their drug trafficking operation.

    In addition Webb and Roberson are charged with one count of conspiracy to distribute crack cocaine and one count of conspiracy to distribute powder cocaine.
