Man Denied Bond

  • {Charleston, West Virginia}...Ernest Lyle Young of Handley was denied bond Monday after being charged with the bludgeoning death of 81 year old Wilfred Naylor, who was found dead in his Kelleys Creek home June 15th. Young's attorney, Shawn Bayliss, told Circuit Judge James Stucky that Young had known Naylor for years, and the two had once had a physical relationship. Bayliss said that, on June 15th, Young had a fight with his wife and called Naylor who picked Young up at a local restaurant and took him to his home where he came on to Young. Bayliss presented the information in an attempt to convince the judge that the charge of first-degree murder against Young wouldn't hold up, and the charge should be second-degree murder.
