Denako Duheart’s case was the one earlier this year where two witnesses in the murder case of  Jason Fourmy were murdered.  Duheart and his brother were initially charged with first degree murder in the case, however, when these two witnesses were killed, the charges were reduced to attempted 2nd degree murder and later reduced again to 2nd degree battery.
