Keene and Denholm are due back in court for a status hearing in January. The trial date for both in murders of Warford and Walker was set for August 12, 2013.
According to court documents, Keene admitted to kidnapping Warford and Walker from their apartment. He says he and an accomplice, now named as Denholm, took the two to an area off Tates Creek Road in Richmond, where the two were tortured. He said Warford was shot execution style, while Walker was stabbed several times, had his throat slashed, then had his gold teeth removed.
According to the documents, Keene naming Denholm as the accomplice led investigators to search a field outside a home on Ballard Court in Berea, which is the home of Denholm’s aunt and grandmother.
