MEMPHIS, Tenn. (WREG) — The man accused of shooting and killing a St. Jude researcher in a robbery this weekend made his first court appearance Wednesday.
A judge told Marious Ward that the district attorney could pursue the death penalty in his case.
Ward, 24, is charged with first-degree murder, murder in perpetration of a felony, especially aggravated robbery, attempted murder, attempted robbery, and use of a firearm in a felony in the case.
He is accused of killing Alexander Bulakhov, 32, during a robbery Sunday evening on Tennessee Street in downtown Memphis.
Bulakhov was walking with his wife and 2-year-old child when he was approached by an armed man. Police say he was shot when he tried to wrestle the gun away from the suspect to defend his family.
The Bulakhovs were from Russia and had most recently lived in New York before moving to Memphis over the summer. Bulakhov was a postdoctoral researcher at St. Jude and his wife was set to start a job there in December, a family friend said.
Brandy Rucker is also charged in the case, and was in court Wednesday. She also was told the death penalty is possible in her case.
She admitted to driving the car while Ward allegedly robbed and shot Bulakhov. That car helped police trace the pair to Frayser, where they were arrested Monday.

Memphis has become a cesspool replete with floating turds. I lived there from when I was 9 years old to when I was 21. I left there 51 years ago. The city has since descended into black savagery.
The best, most powerful classes are preyed upon by the weakest classes in this country. A unusual time in history.
Another of many examples ….
I had the misfortune of living in Memphis in the late ‘70’s and it was a cesspool then and has gotten a lot worse. While I was there the Wall Street Journal had an article titled “Memphis:The Dark Spot in The Sunbelt.”
That would be a waste of a pavement ape. Use it for medical experimentation. They might be able to use it to test a drug or new treatment.
SPJNK.
Johns Hopkins, a medical ‘island’, is in the Baltimore ghetto hellhole, and UPenn Med Ctr, also a medical ‘island’, is also in the Filthadelphia ghetto hellhole.
You best throw in LYING, BRIBE TAKING, CROOKED politicians along with those others.
POLITICIANS KILL MORE PEOPLE THAN EVERYBODY ELSE COMBINED!
I figured that covered it.
More Black Looters Movement scumbags “killin’ dem white peeples.” More human debris that needs to be flushed.
The death penalty is too easy for these two POS.
Ditto what you just said. They need to move out of that sh*thole. It’s not safe for white people there.
A possibility? It should be a certainty and it should have already happened.
EXECUTE BOTH
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Face to face and on live TV!
I imagine we’re going to hear during this maggot’s trial that he was a future, potential hip hopster and was going to be a world famous “rapper”. IOW. Horsesh*t.
I support executing all murderers.
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
And within weeks, not decades, following the guilty verdict. And the prohibition at trial of any questions or testimony regarding “motive” except for the motive of self-defense or the defense of another innocent person.
A trial in two weeks…one week appeal…one week hanging in front of the parents house
