Man Suspected In Harvard Shooting Back In Court

BOSTON (CBS) ― One of two men charged in a fatal shooting at a Harvard University dormitory will be back in court in New York.

Blayn Jiggetts, of Mount Vernon, N.Y., was arrested in Harlem last month. He faces a murder charge for the shooting death of 21-year-old Justin Cosby.

Jiggetts has refused to return voluntarily to Massachusetts and is being held without bail. At a scheduled court appearance Wednesday, a judge could order an extradition hearing.

Prosecutors say the 19-year-old and two other men arranged to meet Cosby to get marijuana and rob him. Cosby was shot during a confrontation inside a common area of Kirkland House and died the next day.

None of the men was a Harvard student.

The University has about 2,401 faculty members.
