 A preliminary hearing was held Monday for 52-year-old James Pratt, who last week was charged with murder and abuse of a corpse after the body of 46-year-old Paul Setzer was found. During the hearing, testimony was given by Floyd County Deputy Darren Lawson, who presented evidence of the incident. A conversation started between Pratt and Mr. Setzer. The interview stated that while they were talking, I guess the argument had started, something about 105 or 105, and one of them stated, let's go down the road, and stated that Mr. Pratt walked outside. That's when you heard initial three or four gunshots, and he stated, Mr. Pratt walked back in, grabbed Kim and Buffy Morgan and their belongings, and then let us in. At Pikeville Medical Center, we believe that together we can make a difference in the fight against cancer. We are proud to have patients who have experienced successful outcomes over many years. As always, we believe in the power of faith. Pikeville Medical Center, where cancer can be defeated. Since Setzer's disappearance on December 30, deputies Allen May and Lawson were able to locate Pratt on January 10th. Laying right next to the lap of Mr. Pratt, when I first made contact with him, I'd advised him multiple times to show his hands. He wouldn't. Finally, he did show his hands. When we got about a car, there was a block 43-nile millimeter laying right at his left leg, which also the shell cases that we found at the initial crime scene down to 10 is actually how it is. After the testimony, probable cause was found and a $250,000 cash bond was set against Pratt. For Mountain Top News, I'm Joel Chorjol.
