Murder suspect now in Hays County Jail

By Anita Miller

The suspect in the murder of Lehman High School graduate Ben Verse has been booked into Hays County Jail.



Davonte Miller, 20, was extradited from Acadia Parish, Louisiana on Tuesday. He is being held without bond for capital murder in connection with Verse's murder in Kyle Sept. 25, and is also charged with aggravated assault with a deadly weapon in connection with a non-fatal shooting that occurred in San Marcos a few hours earlier. Witnesses to the first incident said Miller, who had been accompanied by a female, fled the scene in a silver Hyundai.
