A 34-year-old man has been charged in the June 2017 murder of Egypt Covington in Van Buren Township.
Timothy Moore was arraigned from Toledo, Ohio Sunday afternoon, on one count of homicide in the 27-year-old's death., according to Michigan State Police.
Moore was denied bond.
Egypt was 27-years-old when she was murdered inside her Van Buren Township home in June 2017. She was tied up with Christmas lights and shot to death.
Some of Egypt's relatives have been critical of the investigation that for so long had only been in the hands of Van Buren Township police and they were eager to see State Police approach the case with a fresh set of eyes in hopes that an arrest would be made sooner.
On Nov. 5, investigators announced that two people had been arrested in connection to the 2017 murder. No further details have been released on the second person arrested.
