Here's my notes on the other case:
*Waiting for Trial to start – LA – Meing-Chen (“Mandy”) Hsiao (34) (July 29, 2015/found Aug. 8, 2015) – Quentin Verdell Tellis (27) – charged 3 counts of unauthorized use of an access card & 1 count of possession of marijuana with intent to distribute.
5/12/16 Update: Tellis pleads guilty to 1 count of unauthorized use of access card. Tellis' plea deal saw the possession with intent charge severed from the agreement but not dismissed. He could face that charge in the future. As part of the deal, Tellis was charged as a habitual offender for the unauthorized use of a Chase Bank debit card belonging to murder victim Meing-Chen Hsiao, 34. Tellis is not charged with Hsiao's murder. The habitual offender status doubled the maximum penalty for his charge from a five-year sentence to a 10-year hard labor sentence that will run concurrently with any other sentences. Tellis also received credit for time served. The basis for the plea reported in court states that on Aug. 18-19, 2016, Tellis took an access card belonging to Hsiao and used it without authorization to withdraw at least $1,000. Was sentenced Tellis to 10 years in prison. Tellis also agreed to waive an extradition hearing & will/was return to Mississippi where he will face capital murder charges in connection with the December 2014 death of Jessica Chambers, 19. Quinton Tellis, who was charged in the 2014 Panola County burning death of Jessica Chambers, has been accused of torturing Hsiao to death on her bedroom floor. He was indicted in the Mississippi homicide as he sat in jail in Ouachita Parish, Louisiana, in February 24, 2016 & then an arrest warrant for the Louisiana homicide was filed on Thursday, July 12, 2016 as he sat in jail in DeSoto County, Mississippi Waiting for result of Jessica Chambers’ case; first trial ended in mistrial; retrial starts Sept 24, 2018.
