Preliminary hearing held in Clemson student's death

(Pickens-AP) June 23, 2006 - A registered sex offender in North Carolina accused of strangling a South Carolina college student made a brief appearance in court Friday.

Jerry Buck Inman, 35, was arrested in Dandridge, Tennessee, earlier this month on charges related to the rape, kidnapping and murder of 20-year-old Tiffany Marie Souers.

The woman was a student at Clemson University when she was strangled at her off-campus apartment in May.

Inman's attorney Symmes Culbertson said Friday's hearing in Pickens, South Carolina was mostly procedural and intended to clear up confusion over who was representing Inman on the murder charge.

The hearing comes the day after a grand jury in Tennessee handed down indictments against Inman on charges of aggravated rape and aggravated burglary in connection with an incident that occurred four days before Souers' death.
