He was given a $100,000 bond for the Polk County charges last week.

Case’s attorney, Roy Neill, told judge Powell that the new charges stemmed from a family squabble. Neill said Case was asked by his mother to get the generator from his grandfather’s property.

According to the sheriff report, Case and Amanda Maybin were arrested after they cut pad locks off a trailer at 719 Laurel Drive, Saluda, which is the home of Case’s grandfather. Officers found the generator and drop cord in the vehicle Case and Maybin were driving.

The grandfather said the items belonged to his son, Case’s uncle and were supposed to be locked up in the building.

Case was charged with murder in the Feb. 22 death of Joshua William Lindsay, also of Saluda.
