Federal Hill Murder Suspects Held Without Bond

BALTIMORE (WJZ) — The two people charged in the murder of a Federal Hill man faced a judge earlier Friday for their bail review.

The judge ruled Deandre Sleet to be held without bond given the nature of his charges, calling him an extreme risk to public safety.

23-year-old Sleet faces 30 charges including first-degree murder, armed robbery and illegal possession of a firearm.

Sleet is accused of killing 25-year-old Timothy Moriconi during a botched robbery in Federal Hill on September 27.

Police finally captured the violent duo with witnesses and surveillance footage.
