New information has been released about the death of a 19-year-old gunned down in Lexington’s Winburn neighborhood.
Jeffery Adams was shot and killed earlier this month. One of the men charged in connection with the case was in court this morning. 19-year-old Nathan Miller along with a juvenile are charged with complicity to commit murder. Investigators say the two were among the people who use a drug deal to lure Adams to an apartment on McCullough drive.

During Miller’s preliminary hearing this morning Detective Franz Wolff with the Lexington Police Department told the court that the group of men used a cellphone that belonged to a friend of Adams, leading Adams to believe his friend was the one texting him.
“It would have not been known by the victim that this info was coming from the juvenile co-defendant,” says Det. Wolff.
The detective said the group of four, a juvenile, Miller, Sayvon Thompson and another unidentified person arrived before Adams. The juvenile told police that Miller was hiding, waiting for Adams.
“Nathan Miller was armed with a gun and was sitting in the stairwell between the floors of the apartment building waiting on the victim to arrive,” says Det. Wolff
Police say at least 2 shots were fired at Adams killing him but it isn’t clear who fired those shots. Miller has said he used to live at the apartment complex where this happened but had recently moved to Georgetown and that’s where he was when Adams was killed.
