NEW ORLEANS (WGNO) – Accused cop killer Travis Boys was indicted Monday for first-degree murder, now facing the death penalty. Tuesday, he was in court for a contradictory hearing in Orleans Parish Criminal Court. He still hasn’t been arraigned and no bond has been set.

Tuesday, both sides argued about what to do with the case’s evidence. The defense filed a motion for the evidence to be preserved. The prosecution argued against that because testing and examination still needs to be done and the current order obstructed the investigation.

After about an hour of private discussion, a new order that both sides agreed upon was signed. That will be released to the public later.

10 days ago, Boys allegedly had at least one gun on him when he was put into the back of Officer Daryle Holloway’s cruiser.  While Officer Holloway was driving Boys to the Orleans Parish Prison, Boys managed to break free and shot and killed Officer Holloway.

Boys was in a bulletproof vest, orange jumpsuit and cuffed Tuesday morning, showing increased security for this case.

Blake Arcuri, counsel for Orleans Parish Sheriff’s Office, said:

“[Travis Boys] has been assigned to the supermax unit and has the highest housing classification possible. And maximum security procedures are in place for every aspect of his life in the Orleans Parish Jail. He will visit with his attorneys behind a piece of plexiglass and will not have face-to-face contact without a court order.”
