A Las Vegas man pleaded not guilty to charges of helping arrange the 2018 kidnapping and murder of a Vermont man that grew out of a financial dispute.
Davis was kidnapped from his Danville home on Jan. 6, 2018, and found shot to death in a snowbank the next day.
Prosecutors say Aron Lee Ethridge, 42, of Henderson, Nevada, arranged for Jerry Banks, 34, of Fort Garland, Colorado, to kidnap and then kill Davis. Banks allegedly called Ethridge the day after the kidnapping to inform him that Davis had been successfully kidnapped and killed.Sign up for our News Headlines newsletterEratay is alleged to have paid Ethridge more than $110,000 — some of which was paid to Banks — according to court documents.
Ethridge pleaded guilty last week for his role in helping to arrange the kidnapping and murder of Davis.
