1998-02-07 Richie

Richie faced homicide charges in 1998, but a grand jury did not indict him because the death was seen as self-defense, Trupe said.

Richie was charged in the shooting death of Rickey Lavern Jones, 48, said Cpl. Jerry Neufeld, a spokesman for the Amarillo Police Department. But investigators ruled that Jones entered Richie's apartment by force, Neufeld said.
