Johnson and Minter both posted a $25,000 bond and both were released.
According to court documents, Johnson appeared in court for a preliminary hearing on Thursday, Sept. 5. The court heard evidence of whether probable cause existed in the case. The court found that there was enough probable cause for the case to be presented to the Grand Jury.
Minter waived his preliminary hearing on Aug. 19, and his case was bound over to the Circuit Court to await the action of the Grand Jury.
