    OREGON CITY -- The man accused of killing Whitney Heichel was indicted Friday afternoon on additional charges of kidnap, robbery and sodomy.

    The hearing, during which Jonathan Holt appeared in court via a video feed, took only two minutes. Holt, whose court appointed attorney is Conor Thomas Huseby, will remain in jail

    More Continuing coverage of Whitney Heichel, 21, of Gresham, who was reported missing after she failed to show up for work.

    None of Heichel's family showed up for the hearing, which took place at the same time that an "open house" in her memory was going on at a Gresham Jehovah's Witness Kingdom Hall.

    Holt was arrested a week ago today in connection with the death of Heichel, a 21-year-old Gresham woman whose body was found on Larch Mountain with four gunshot wounds.

    Holt, who turned 25 this week, has confessed to killing her and also to kidnapping her on the morning of Tuesday, Oct. 16, and sexually assaulting her before shooting her.

    More information to come.

    What's an "open house" at the KH?

    It's unchartered territory, I think.

    Don't recall *ever* hearing about an Open House for the non-JW community in a Kingdom Hall.
