NEW HAVEN, Conn. — Quinxuan Pan, a suspect in the murder of Yale grad student Kevin Jiang, appeared before a New Haven judge today.
Pan was arrested in Alabama last week after U.S. Marshalls.
After three months on the run, court officials say he was discovered in a Montgomery apartment, renting place under a false name.
Pan, accused of killing 26-year-old Yale graduate student Kevin Jiang, had $19,000 in cash in his possession, as well as seven cell phones, several SIM cards and his father's passport.
During the proceedings, the state asked for $50 million bond.
However, Pan's bond was set at $20 million.
His attorney, William Gerace said he thinks that may be a record for bond in Connecticut.
When asked if Pan's family will be able to post it, Gerace said: "I don't think so, seems exorbitant."
He added that his team will probably appeal the bond. Pan is scheduled to face a judge again on June 1.
Jiang was shot in the East Rock neighborhood, in the area of Lawrence and Nicoll Streets on February 6.
Investigators first named 30-year-old Pan a person of interest in Jiang's death before the investigation showed he was a suspect in the death. Officials said Pan would be charged with murder and 2nd-degree larceny.
