BERKELEY COUNTY, S.C. – In a surprising turn of events, a judge has granted bond to the woman charged with her son’s killing in a 1989 cold case in Berkeley County. Megan Turner, previously known as Pamela Turner, has been released on a $50,000 surety bond, under the condition that she does not leave the state and surrenders her passport. Turner, along with her husband Victor, is accused of murder in relation to the death of their son, Justin Lee Turner, over three decades ago. The arrest came just a month ago, following an investigation by the Berkeley County Sheriff’s Office.
The decision to grant bond has sparked controversy and left the community divided. Many are eagerly following the developments of the case, seeking justice and closure for the loss of young Justin Turner. The decision of Judge Roger Young has raised questions about the strength of the prosecution’s case and whether there may be new evidence or circumstances that led to the decision.
One concerned resident, James Anderson, expressed his doubts about Turner’s release, stating, It’s really unsettling to think that someone charged with murder could now be out on bond. We hope the authorities have solid reasons for this decision.
Meanwhile, supporters of Turner believe that the bond shows a potential weakness in the prosecution’s case, suggesting that she may be innocent. Janet Lawson, a longtime family friend, passionately stated, Megan is not capable of such a heinous crime. There must be more to this story, and I hope the truth comes out soon.
The reopening of this cold case has undoubtedly brought back painful memories for the community. Justin Lee Turner’s tragic death in March 1989 shook Berkeley County to its core, leaving a scar that has endured for over three decades. The case had long remained unsolved, until a breakthrough led authorities to Megan and Victor Turner.
As the trial looms on the horizon, the community braces itself for what lies ahead. With new details emerging and emotions running high, the justice system faces the challenging task of unraveling the events that took place so many years ago.
In the pursuit of truth and justice, the Berkeley County community hopes that this momentous development will shed light on the tragic death of Justin Lee Turner and provide closure for his grieving loved ones. The trial will undoubtedly be closely followed by both the local community and individuals around the world who have been captivated by this long-standing mystery.
