Fatal Shooting Suspect Held Without Bond After Essex Killing: Courts

ESSEX, MD — An Essex man facing murder charges was held without bond this week and accused of fatally shooting a woman in his community, court records say.

Police accused Gregory Graham, 37, of killing Stacy Cooper, 49, on Tuesday.

Officers said ShotSpotter, a gunfire tracking service, alerted them about a potential shooting at Honeywood Place and Sugarwood Circle around 6:10 p.m.

Authorities said they found the victim suffering from a gunshot wound. She was pronounced dead on the scene, a press release said.

The case file says Graham faces one count of first-degree murder and one count of second-degree murder.

Judge Krystin J. Richardson held Graham without bond on Thursday, court records say.
