Travis Rudder

More than a year after Orpheus Johnson was charged with the murder of Nandy Park miner Travis Rudder, a date for the beginning of the preliminary inquiry into the charge has finally been set.

On September 8, the PI into the murder charge will commence before Magistrate Judy Latchman.

On July 13, 2015, Johnson appeared before the now Chief Magistrate Ann McLennan where he was read six charges, including armed robbery, break and entry and gun and ammunition possession.
