Taylorville Man Arrested In Connection With 2019 Death

A Taylorville man found himself back in court in connection with a womans death in 2019. 30-year-old Bradley Jenkins was arrested in Christian County late last week by US Marshals in connection with the death of Allissa Martin.  Jenkins is facing the same charge he faced before; third-degree felony domestic assault.  He appeared in court in St. Louis on Friday, where he was granted a $5,000 bond which he posted and was released. 

 

Jenkins and Martin had attended a St. Louis Cardinals baseball game in 2019.  An argument ensued and police say they have a cell phone video of the argument. Martin fell from the parking garage and passed away from her injuries. Initial charges had been dropped but new prosecutors have taken over the case and refiled the charges. 

 

US Marshal’s arrested Jenkins in Taylorville on Tuesday, April 26th after charges had been refiled on April 19th.  He was moved to St. Louis on April 28th and was in court on the 29th. Jenkins' next court appearance is scheduled for May 6th.
