Less than a week before Christmas the body of 20 year old Fort Drum Soldier Hayden Harris was found in a wooded area of Byram Township. Yesterday the Sussex County Prosecutor's Office announced charges have been filed against the two people believed to be responsible for the young man's murder. A 23 year old Fort Drum soldier Pvt. Jamaal Mellish nd a 16 year old boy have been charged with first degree murder and kidnapping. The pair also face several weapons charges. The Sussex County Prosecutors worked with the U.S. Army and law enforcement in New York to investigate and bring the charges.
