At a court appearance Tuesday in Hastings, his bail was set at $1.5 million without conditions, or $1 million with conditions. Nguyen is charged with murder in connection with the death of Beverly Cory, 48. Authorities have said there is no known connection between Nguyen and Cory, who lived in Maplewood. A message left with the public defender who appeared in court with Nguyen was not immediately returned. Prosecutors said Nguyen went into a house in the suburb of Mendota Heights on Saturday, brandished a gun at a woman and demanded cash.
