Adam Coy, the former Columbus Police Officer who was fired after killing unarmed Andre Hill last year (December 22) while responding to a non-emergency call, appeared in court for the first time for a bond hearing.
After entering a not guilty plea, a Franklin County judge set Coy’s bond at 3 million dollars. Coy is facing four counts murder while in the commission of a felony; felonious assault; and two counts of dereliction of duty. Coy’s attorney Mark Collins stated after that they would be going to another judge to ask for a lower bond.
Coy was a 19-year veteran of the force and believed Hill was a danger. Coy says he thought the keyring in Hill’s hand was a revolver. Hill was unarmed.
