Laughlin Man faces nine felony indictments
Last week, a Laughlin man was arraigned for two felonies, bringing his total to nine: He now faces charges for kidnapping, armed robbery, aggravated assault and first degree burglary, amongst others. The indictments stem from an alleged home invasion robbery in Bullhead City back in August.
The defendant’s trial is now set to begin February 23rd, and his case was severed from that of five other co-defendants. The defendant has already served six years for a 2002 armed robbery, and he was released this past April. During this recent alleged home invasion, friends of the victim spotted the crime through the window and recorded the suspects’ license plate, which helped authorities identify them.
People arrested in Laughlin are typically booked at the Laughlin Jail initially. However, the Laughlin Jail is merely a holding facility, with inmates staying there for rarely more than two days before being transferred to the Clark County Detention Center. Unlike most detention centers, Laughlin Jail does not provide uniforms, trust accounts (“books”) or commissary privileges to its inmates.
