Police in Memphis have charged a man with the 2010 murder of former NBA player Lorenzen Wright, according to The Commercial Appeal.
Billy Turner, 46, was indicted Tuesday on a charge of first degree murder. He is being held on $1 million bond. The arrest comes one month after police announced they had found the murder weapon in a Mississippi lake, about 50 miles from where Wright’s body was found on July 28, 2010.
Wright went missing on the night of July 19, 2010, and made a 911 call in which nine gunshots could be heard.
