MCPHERSON, Kan. (AP) A preliminary hearing for two men charged in the beating death of a Tabor College student has been rescheduled to December.
The hearing for Alton Franklin and DeQuinte Flournoy, both 19-year-old men from Dallas, was scheduled for Monday. But it was postponed until Dec. 10. The Hutchinson News reports attorneys did not explain the reason for the delay.
The suspects, both former McPherson College football players, are charged with being accessories to second-degree murder in the Sept. 22 death of 26-year-old Brandon Brown.
Brown, a redshirt defensive lineman for Tabor College, died after being injured in a fight early Sept. 16 at a party in McPherson.
Both men remained jailed on $500,000 bonds.
