Gabrielle “Gabby” Williams, 19, waived her preliminary hearing this past Friday in Geary County District Court. Arraignment has been scheduled for November 4. Also, on the same day, the preliminary hearing for Joseph Craig, 24, was continued to November 9.

Geary County Attorney Steve Opat confirmed that Craig and Williams are both charged with Conspiracy to Commit 1st Degree Murder, 1st degree Murder Premeditated, Conspiracy to Commit Aggravated Robbery, Aggravated Robbery, and Felony Murder. Craig also faces one additional count of Possession of a Firearm by a Previously Convicted Felon. The two Junction City residents are accused in the shooting death of David Phillips, 24, Manhattan, last January. Phillips was found dead from gunshot wounds to the head at an 827 West 12th Street, Apartment C location.

Opat said the preliminary hearing for Craig was continued last Friday morning ” due to the receipt that morning  of a forensic evidence report from the Kansas Bureau of Investigation regarding some DNA that was submitted in this case.”
