RAPID CITY, S.D. (AP) - Two men accused of being accessories in the alleged murder-for-hire last year of a Rapid City woman have had bond set at $1 million apiece.
Twenty-nine-year-old Garland Brown and 24-year-old Michael Frye made initial court appearances Wednesday. The Rapid City men did not enter pleas.
They’re charged in the May 2015 stabbing death of 22-year-old Jessica Rehfeld. Her body was found in a remote grave near Rockerville last Friday.
Three other people facing first-degree murder charges remain jailed on $2 million bond apiece. They include Rehfeld’s ex-boyfriend, 26-year-old Jonathon Klinetobe, of Sturgis. Authorities allege Klinetobe hired two others to kill Rehfeld.
