Four of the men charged in connection to the shooting death of Reginald "Shay" Nicholson made bond appeals in court Monday.

Jahmaine Faqiri will remain in jail after a Rockingham County judge denied his bond. His Attorney argued Faqiri did not have a violent criminal past.

During that hearing, a Harrisonburg Police officer took the stand to talk about the events leading up to the shooting at Hunter's Ridge on November 9. He says a group walked into one of the apartments that night and passed a "B" sign, which stands for the "Bloods" gang. Others allegedly passed a "C," which stands for the "Crypts." It was sometime after that police say a fight broke out which involved Faqiri.

Gregory Baker, who was also allegedly involved in that fight, withdrew his bond appeal in court. Attorneys for Demonds Parrish decided to continue a bond appeal to a later date.

Zackery Turner, who is charged with first degree murder for the death of Nicholson, was denied bond in Harrisonburg's General District court Monday.

First of all, Gangs in Greene County are not real. Greg is my friend and Jahmaine is my cousin. Just because of a tattoo that people believe to mean one thing but really means the other and because of what people "think" doesnt mean that conclusions should be made about the situation. My heart goes out to the Shay family but my cousin nor my friend did not shoot him. So why can't they set bond. If it was your family or friends you wouldn't want them to go to prison for a crime they didnt committ. My cousin and his friend are in jail because of how things "look" not because of what really took place. The shooter is in prison and thats all they need. I understand that what they did wasnt right but it makes no sense they can't have BOND. all these rapists are set free but becuase my cousin and his friend were "affliated" with a gang or was with them or whatever he can't have bond?!!Greg is not a gangster and neither is my cousin!!! The killers in prison.What more do yu want?
