Dorian Jeri-Greene, man accused of killing Rostraver Township woman, heading to trial
A judge ruled Thursday that all charges against homicide suspect Dorian Jeri-Greene would be held for trial. Jeri-Greene is charged with homicide, robbery, burglary and theft in the shooting death of Jennah Seibert. County detectives were called to a home on Lenity School Road on April 11, where Seibert was found shot to death. It was an intense battle during Jeri-Greene's preliminary hearing between the Commonwealth and defense as Seibert's family, along with her fiancé, Bryan Murray, sat in the back of the courtroom. Murray was one of four witnesses to take the stand, testifying to what happened the day of Seibert's death. During the nearly three-hour preliminary hearing, Murray stared down Jeri-Greene, who kept his head down and appeared to be relaxed and calm. It was Jeri-Greene's first court appearance since his arrest in Florida after police said he pawned stolen jewelry from Seibert's home. He was wearing coveralls and was handcuffed at his hands and feet in the courtroom. During Murray's testimony, he said he left home at 7:40 a.m. that day, and Seibert was still in bed. "I gave her a kiss on the forehead and told her I'd see her at dinner," Murray said. He said he texted her three times that morning, and when he had gotten no response and none of her family could reach her, Murray and Seibert's father left the job they were at and headed to the house. When he arrived home, Murray said the basement was "tore up" and found Seibert in a pool of blood in their bed. Murray said her necklace, his watch and two guns were missing. At one point, Murray testified that Jeri-Greene had been at their home once before in 2020 for a Fourth of July party. He said Jeri-Greene attended with another person and was not invited. He said it was unclear if Jeri-Greene went inside his home during the party. The Commonwealth presented several exhibits of evidence, including video surveillance from Murray's outside cameras on the day of the homicide. At 7:41 a.m., before the electricity to the cameras was cut off, the Commonwealth said a person can be seen wearing all black peeking from Murray's shed in the yard immediately after Murray left his home. A detective testified that in the video, the person can be seen holding a long gun in his left hand before running across the yard. The detective also testified that Jeri-Greene pawned Seibert's jewelry at a pawn shop in Florida. He said Jeri-Greene used his ID at the pawn shop. In addition, a detective testified that Seibert's stolen car was found two or three blocks away from a 7-Eleven in New Eagle, where Jeri-Greene is caught on surveillance at the front counter of the store. The defense argued that there was no forced entry found at Murray's home on the day of the crime. They also noted several inconsistencies in the detective's testimony, including the color of clothing seen on the person in the surveillance video at Murray's home. Jeri-Greene's attorneys alluded that there could have been two people caught on the surveillance video, and it's unclear who entered the property and fired the shots, killing Seibert. His attorneys also argued that no DNA has been found connecting Jeri-Greene to the crime. At one point, during discussions about surveillance video from nearby businesses in Monongahela where Seibert's car was found, the defense argued it's unclear who is seen in her car or how many people. A detective testified that it is possible there could have been more than one person in the car, saying the windows are dark, but you can't see a silhouette of another person. The detective said that when the car was found, bleach droplets could be seen and smelled inside. As Jeri-Greene was escorted from the courthouse back to jail, he had no comment. Murray and Seibert's family also provided no comment after the hearing.

A SOAP star doesn't remember he's left a hit show has he battles dementia. The actor - who has starred on the long-running programme for 20 years - quietly left the show amid his devastating diagnosis. 3 Bryan Murray can't remember leaving Fair City, his heartbroken wife has revealed Credit: RTÉ 3 The actor left the soap last year as his dementia progresses Credit: Paul Sharp 3 Bryan is married to Una Crawford O'Brien, who also played his on-screen wife Credit: Alamy Bryan Murray had played the character of Bob Dylan in Fair City up until last year when his wife Una Crawford O'Brien made the heartbreaking decision. Reflecting on the choice, Una said: "He wasn't aware that he was finished either and that was good. "Once it started to stress him in any way, I knew the time was right for him to finish." Una, who also stars in Fair City as Bryan's on-screen wife Renee, paid tribute to show bosses and crew for their support over the past six years. She said to the Irish Mirror: "Brigie was incredible; her and the team have facilitated him the best they could and that included everyone – acting, staging, sound – they all helped out. Huge thanks goes to them all. "They respected my decision late last year when I said he would have to finish up. "Brigie had always said that she was leaving it entirely up to me, which was the best thing she could have done, because I wanted him to do it as long as he possibly could." Speaking about Bryan, Fair City's executive producer Brigie de Courcy previously said: "We are all very sad about this. "Bryan has been an absolutely wonderful part of the team for the last 20 years, an integral part of the story and an absolute consummate professional. Fair City star returns on air "He is the very sort of person, when you have a young actor coming in you say to them, 'Go down and watch Bryan and watch what he does, how he occupies the space and how he occupies the screen'. "Initially we put all of his scripts onto a clipboard so he could read his scene and it was very efficient. "We ended up with a situation where he had a Bluetooth ear loop and we had a dialogue guide who would actually listen to him in rehearsal and pick up his intonations and his rhythms and then he would repeat it back to him on the floor and then Bryan would then say the line." Bryan first arrived in fictional Carrigstown in 2005.

As the disease progresses, symptoms can become more severe. But at the beginning, the symptoms can be subtle or mistaken for normal memory issues related to ageing. The You can refer to these above. For example, it is normal for an ageing person to forget which word to use from time-to-time, but difficulting having conversation would be more indicative of dementia. Katie Puckering, Head of Alzheimer's Research UK's Information Services team, 'As you get older, it takes longer for you to recall, or you really have to think; What was I doing? Where was I? What distracted me? Was it that I had to let the dog out? And then you find the keys by the back door. 'That process of retrieving the information is just a bit slower in people as they age. 'In dementia, someone may not be able to recall that information and what they did when they came into the house. 'What may also happen is they might put it somewhere it really doesn't belong. For example, rather than putting the milk back in the fridge, they put the kettle in the fridge.'
