MADISON (WKOW) — One of the suspects in Madison's first homicide in 2022 has appeared in court for the first time.
Amond Galtney, 25, was charged with first-degree intentional homicide as a party to a crime and operating a vehicle to elude an officer on April 7.
He was briefly hospitalized last week and appeared in Dane County Circuit Court on Monday.
During the initial appearance, a court commissioner set Galtney's bond at $1 million.
Prior to bond being set, the shooting victim's sister addressed the court. "This is someone who set my brother up, who knew him, who grew up with him, who was in childhood photos with my brother, and you set him up to be gunned down outside of the courthouse," Neporsha Hamlin said.
The other suspect, Demone Cummins, appeared in court on April 5. He also got a $1 million cash bail.
Both men are accused of playing a role in the shooting death of Dwayne Lee Collins as he was leaving the Dane County Jail on March 30.
