RACINE, WI (WTAQ) – Three men allegedly robbed and killed another man in Racine, and then drove to Milwaukee to gamble at the Potawatomi Casino.
That’s what an investigator said Wednesday at a hearing in Racine County Circuit Court.
The three defendants are charged in a December 11th holdup in which 41-year-old Maurice Carter of Chicago was shot to death.
Authorities said the 3 planned to rob Carter and another man — but it was not clear if any money was stolen in the mugging. 24-year-old Travenn Webster of Racine and 25-year-old Daimon Jackson of Milwaukee were ordered Wednesday to stand trial.
They’re scheduled to enter pleas next Thursday to charges of felony murder, armed robbery, and illegal firearm possession as convicted felons.
24-year-old Bobby Henderson of Racine waived his preliminary hearing on the same counts, and he pleaded not guilty. He’ll have a pre-trial conference on February 20th.
