The 67-year-old man accused of shooting 46-year-old Vonda Adams in Cornville in April was again arrested and charged with her murder Friday, July 2.
Criminal Investigations Bureau detectives from the Yavapai County Sheriff’s Office made the arrest. The alleged homicide occurred in the 2600 block of Kadomoto Drive at the suspect’s Cornville home.
He was originally arrested on April 28 following a preliminary investigation. He was released a short time later resulting from the need to further investigate the circumstances, according to YCSO.
Adams was a friend to one of the suspect’s acquaintances and had disputes with him in the past, according to YCSO.
On July 2, a Yavapai County Grand Jury returned an indictment for one count of murder based on additional evidence presented by YCSO detectives. The suspect was booked at the Yavapai County Detention Center in Camp Verde and was due in court Saturday, July 3, for his initial appearance.
Further details regarding the investigation have not been released.
