A man has been arrested in connection to a death at a Beaufort apartment death Dec. 30.

Police have arrested a man in connection with a death last month at a Beaufort apartment complex.

Beaufort police said Thursday that they have arrested 35-year-old Bryan Antwan Thomas in connection with the death of 62-year-old Huey Marshall at Garden Oaks Apartments, 2000 Salem Road.

Police went to the apartments after a concerned relative called and said they couldn’t reach Marshall. Marshall was dead when they arrived, police said.

Police credited “diligent efforts” of the Investigations Division and numerous anonymous tips from the community for Thomas’ arrest.

Thomas has been charged with murder, possession of a weapon during the commission of a violent crime and possession with intent to distribute crack cocaine.

Anyone with information about suspicious or criminal activity is encouraged to contact the non- emergency dispatch line at 843-524-2777. Anonymous tips can be reported to 843-322-7938.

US seeks 15 years prison for disgraced former NJ senator Menendez
NEW YORK (Reuters) -Robert Menendez, the disgraced former U.S. senator from New Jersey, should spend at least 15 years in prison following his corruption conviction, after he betrayed voters by putting his office "up for sale" in exchange for bribes, U.S. prosecutors said. The recommendation was filed on Thursday night in Manhattan federal court, a week after Menendez's lawyers pleaded for leniency, citing the 71-year-old's age, decades of public service, charitable works, devotion to family, and financial and professional ruin. Probation officers recommended a 12-year prison term, which Menendez's lawyers described as an effective "death sentence."
