HAMILTON — Bond was set at $1 million each today, Nov. 5, for two teens charged in connection with the September stabbing death of a 15-year-old West Chester Twp. girl.

Khrendon Disjon Gray, 19, of Springfield Twp., Rashon Martin, 17, of Forest Park were both arraigned before Judge Keith Spaeth, Gray was indicted last week on one count of murder and Martin on one court of complicity to murder in the Sept. 10 slaying of Amber Robinson.

A trial date of Jan. 25, 2010 was set for both teens.

West Chester Twp. police found Robinson with a stab wound to her left side lying in the street at Triangle Drive and West Wind Court in the North Pointe Townhomes after responding to several calls about a disturbance. That night, they charged Gray with murder.

Earlier this month, Butler County Juvenile Court Judge Ronald Craft transferred Martin’s case to adult court.

West Chester Twp. police say Martin handed the knife used to stab Robinson to Gray. Detectives say the fatal stabbing occurred during a series of fights at the housing complex.
