EVANSVILLE, Ind. – A local man facing murder charges is scheduled to appear in court on Monday, February 3rd, as his trial begins. Cade Kirk, 26, is accused of beating 38-year-old Corey Fisher to death in an incident that occurred last summer.
According to authorities, both Kirk and his co-defendant, Charles Miles, were involved in the fatal assault. Surveillance footage from the scene reportedly shows Kirk removing an item from his waistband before striking Fisher with it. The video evidence is expected to be a key component of the prosecution’s case as the trial proceeds.
Kirk has been in custody since his arrest and is being held on a $1 million bond. Prosecutors argue that the evidence against him is strong, with the surveillance footage offering a critical look at the events leading up to Fisher’s death.
Fisher’s death shocked the local community, and the trial is drawing attention as it moves forward. Authorities are hopeful that the legal process will bring clarity and justice to the victim’s family.
As the trial begins, the case remains a topic of discussion in Evansville, with many awaiting the outcome of what is expected to be a highly contentious legal battle.
