A Roane County man who was being held
on federal drug charges is now charged
with murder.
Forty-seven-year-old Alex V. "Tattoo Vince" Golosow of
Tariff, who has used other names,was arraigned in Roane County
Magistrate Court yesterday on a murder
charge.
He's accused in the shooting death of
Justin Reed, 52, of Roane County, whose decomposed body was found on Pisgah Ridge near the Town of Clay. The body was reportedly dumped there by associates of Golosow.
Investigators haven't said what the motive
could have been.
Golosow's federal charge of possession
with intent to deliver has been dismissed.
He was released today from South
Central Regional Jail in Charleston, and is
now being held in Central Regional Jail in
Flatwoods on the murder charge.
Bond has not been set.
A spokeswoman with the US attorney's
office has declined to comment on the
reason for the dismissal of the federal
charge.
