Jaquies La’Montavious Hoffman, 20, of Tallassee, was booked into the Jefferson County Jail just before 4:30 p.m. today.Hoffman is charged with capital murder in the slaying of 44-year-old Snir Lalum, a co-owner of Insta-Movers.
Jefferson County Deputy District Attorney Dain Stewart argued that Lalum was killed during a robbery, hence the capital murder charge. Judge Katrina Ross said the case would be bound over to a grand jury, but she was considering whether suspect Ross should be charged with capital murder or murder. Glasgow testified that Ross and Hoffman then followed the Insta-Movers workers to the warehouse. Ross was seen on surveillance video first talking to the workers and then to Lalum when he arrived at work.
