Jonathan Holt, 24, who was dressed in an anti-suicide smock, didn't enter a plea during a brief appearance by video at the Clackamas County courthouse in Oregon. He spoke softly, kept his head down and seemed at one point to wipe away tears. According to court documents released, Holt committed kidnapping, sodomy and robbery in the course of killing her.
