OMAHA, Neb. (AP) — Prosecutors are criticizing a judge’s decision to set bail for a man charged with murder after a different judge had twice refused to do so.

Douglas County District Judge Gary Randall set bail Friday at $50,000 cash for Carl Heng.

Heng is charged with second-degree murder and a weapons count for the Aug. 24 shooting death of 25-year-old Thomas Lane. Heng has insisted he was acting in self-defense and protecting Lane’s girlfriend, who was a co-worker.

But prosecutors say the evidence shows Lane was unarmed and not posing a threat when he was shot as he unlocked an exterior door to his apartment building.

Heng is free after his family posted his bail late Friday.
