The 90-year-old Trenton man accused of gunning down his 65-year-old neighbor who looked after him will remain jailed pending trial, a judge ruled Wednesday following two days of testimony.
Clent Morris is charged with killing Cheryl Jones on April 24 on Sheridan Avenue in East Trenton, where they’ve both lived for decades. Jones’ family said she took Morris to appointments and generally looked after him for years since he could no longer drive and lived alone.
Morris’ defense attorney portrayed her client as a victim in the case who does not recall firing a gun, and suggested the gunman was Jones’ boyfriend.

At Least 138 Volcanoes Buried Beneath The Antarctic Ice Sheet

This is in addition to the 47 subglacial volcanoes already known about in Antarctica, wrote Robin McKie.
This makes it the largest volcanic region on Earth, and it’s hidden 1.2 miles (2 km) below the surface of the vast ice sheet that covers west Antarctica.
A project by Edinburgh University researchers revealed the 91 volcanoes – with the highest as tall as the Eiger, which stands at almost 4,000 meters (13,123 ft) in Switzerland.
Put another way, the highest of these newly discovered volcanoes stands more than two miles tall!
The tips of some of the volcanoes actually lie above the ice and have been spotted by polar explorers over the past century.
