Teen to stand trial as adult in homicide

HAMILTON - A Hamilton man accused of acting as an accomplice in a homicide when he was 16 years old will be tried as an adult, a judge ruled Tuesday.

Butler County Juvenile Court Judge Ron Craft sent the case of Bradley Jackson to the county grand jury and set Jackson's bond at $5.1 million.

Now 19, Jackson is being held in the county jail on charges of complicity to murder and complicity to aggravated robbery in the March 2002 stabbing death of Paul W. Brown, 33, of Hamilton.

Jackson is accused of helping Richard W. Miller, 21, of Hamilton, who faces the death penalty if convicted of aggravated murder in Brown's slaying. Miller's trial is Jan. 12 in Butler County Common Pleas Court.

Brown was a Miami University graduate with a degree in public administration.

The case remained unsolved for more than two years.

Brown's family paid for billboards, helped post a $25,000 reward and kept publicizing the need for additional leads until Miller was indicted in May.
