A suspect in the fatal shooting of two police officers in Kissimmee will be staying in jail after a judge denied him bond Sunday, saying there was probable cause for his first-degree murder charge. Everett Miller wore handcuffs and shackles during a first-appearance hearing that lasted a minute and a half. When it was over, he said, “Thank you, your honor.”
Miller, 45, also is facing charges of resisting arrest and carrying a concealed weapon. Other charges likely will be filed.
Sgt. Sam Howard of the Kissimmee Police Department died Saturday afternoon at a hospital where he had been taken following Friday night’s attack. Officer Matthew Baxter died Friday night.
