http://www.pantagraph.com/news/local/article_681d0030-b47e-11de-b059-001cc4c002e0.html

Harris appeared before Logan County Judge Thomas Harris (no relation) about 6 p.m. Thursday to face first-degree murder charges that are identical to those filed Oct. 2 against his brother, Christopher J. Harris.

The audience included three members of the media, several law enforcement officials and a Logan County employee, but no family members.

From this link:

"In an interview with The Courier Thursday morning, Logan County State’s Attorney Michael McIntosh said he is unsure of what will happen with Duncan, who was arrested in Florida Wednesday afternoon.
“I don’t what’s going to happen,” said McIntosh. “She could fight it (extradition back to Illinois) … I doubt it, but I don’t know.”

Presser should be coming up in just a few minutes:

Key players in Beason slayings have ties to Florida
http://www.pantagraph.com/news/local/article_1432b060-b4ff-11de-a5f9-001cc4c002e0.html

On Sept. 25 -- four days after the bodies were found -- Sara A. Duncan, 43, was in Illinois and allegedly gave two state police special agents a false alibi for Christopher J. Harris, the brother of her daughter's fiancee.

In an interview with The Associated after his brother's arrest, Jason Harris said he was at his home outside Armington when the Gee family apparently was killed. He said his brother was home all night, too, aside from one brief trip to the store, and that his brother didn't display any wounds or blood spatters that might be expected from a violent struggle.

How many security cameras can be found on the route between Jason's home and the Gee home? I'll bet LE knows.

Betty Tappan told The Pantagraph on Thursday that her sister came to Illinois two days before the murders to visit Earnest and Earnest's 1-year-old daughter. She planned to spend a week in Armington and had plane tickets to return Sept. 26 to Florida, said Tappan.

"She was just a grandmother, baby sitting and taking care of her granddaughter," said Tappan.

Former prosecutor to serve on defense team in Beason murder case

By Edith Brady-Lunny
Posted: Tuesday, November 3, 2009 1:00 pm


LINCOLN -- A former McLean County prosecutor has agreed to serve as co-counsel for the defense in the case against Jason L. Harris, who is accused along with his brother of killing a Beason family.

Stephanie Wong will join Bloomington attorney Steve Skelton, Skelton told The Pantagraph Tuesday.
.....

Wong was an assistant state's attorney for 13 years before leaving the McLean County office in 2006. She currently has a legal practice with Jason Chambers in Bloomington. In addition to the Beason case, Wong is representing Liam McCauley, who is accused of killing his father in August in the family's Bloomington home.

The appointment of Wong brings five veteran defense attorneys to the Gee case. Christopher Harris is represented by Tim Timoney, James Elmore and Matthew Maurer, all of Springfield.

Defendants in death penalty cases are entitled to two attorneys who are certified to handle capital cases. Timoney said he is qualified but has not become certified because it is financially beneficial to the county to use his services as a public defender, a move that shifts the burden of legal fees to the state Capital Litigation Trust Fund.

The Harris brothers are due back in court for a Dec. 3 hearing.
