A man charged in connection with a double homicide that happened in Parkersburg in September was back in court Thursday.

James Walters, Jr. has been charged with two felony counts of concealing a dead body. His bond was set at $400,000.

Thursday in court there was a motion to reduce his bond. Judge Robert Waters denied that motion. The case has been bound over to the grand jury.

Walters and Jaymason Robinson face charges related to the deaths of Eric Sprouse and Lester Wratchford.

In September authorities said the victims were fatally shot at a home on the 1100 block of Pike Street and then taken to a wooded area off of Laurel Creek Road where the bodies were found.

Walters and Robinson remained behind bars Thursday.
