Two weeks after the shooting death of a Madison county man, three of the four suspects had their charges lessened today during a preliminary hearing.
Kirk Garrett is the only one still facing a murder charge in the death of Roy Combs, who was shot just shy of his twenty-sixth birthday. Don Attaway, Kristi Mattingly and Christopher Coleman are now facing complicity to murder charges. Detectives say the suspects met up the day before Combs was killed.

Officials say all of the suspects except Attaway were armed during the attack. A shotgun was recovered at the home of Kristi Mattingly, and two other weapons are believed to have been thrown into the Kentucky River at the Clays Ferry Bridge.
Police searched the area last Friday, but recovered nothing.
