Homicide Suspect's Mother Could Face a Misdemeanor Charge

Feb. 18, 2020 12:15p

(WGTD)----The mother of homicide suspect Martice Fuller was taken into custody Monday afternoon and held briefly during an investigation into jury tampering.

Police are recommending that Alice Fuller be charged with a misdemeanor count of obstruction. She apparently hesitated when police asked to see her phone after they presented a warrant. 

Martice Fuller is accused of killing his ex-girlfriend and wounding her mother. 

He was to have gone on trial Monday morning, but the trial was rescheduled after it came to light that the defendant had tried to recruit relatives to contact jurors over the weekend. The jury was selected on Friday. 

An investigation into possible jury tampering remains open.
