A Columbia man charged with stabbing his father to death early Thursday morning before dragging his body into the back yard of their Medina drive home has been ordered jailed without bond.

A Boone County judge describes 22-year-old Alen Muslic as a danger to the community, and the Columbia Police Department’s graphic three-page probable cause statement says Muslic has ties to Bosnia and that he could be capable of fleeing the country.

Boone County prosecutors have charged Muslic with first degree murder and armed criminal action, and Columbia Police say Muslic is currently in custody at the Fulton State Hospital. The Columbia Police Department’s graphic three-page probable cause statement says police found a large amount of blood in the road in front of the house and that the suspect allegedly had blood on his feet and a large bloody kitchen knife in his shorts. Court documents say the suspect’s father, 62-year-old Zufer Muslic, suffered multiple stab wounds to his torso. The father was pronounced dead at the scene.

Court documents quote Alen Muslic as admitting that he grabbed two kitchen knives after and argument with his father, and then made the conscious decision to follow his father outside to kill him.
