8/6/13 - An arraignment was held yesterday in Wayne County Circuit Court for a South Lyon man accused of murdering his ex-girlfriend. 31-year-old Eric Frederickson stood mute during his arraignment on charges of first-degree premeditated murder and felony murder. A plea of not-guilty was entered on his behalf. He is charged as a second-time habitual offender and is currently on probation in connection with a 2009 case of aggravated stalking. Police say Frederickson stabbed to death his ex-girlfriend, 22-year-old Summer Lynn Faulkner, in her Taylor apartment on July 19th. Faulknerâs younger sister and a friend were home at the time and called police to report the attack. Faulkner was pronounced dead at the scene. Fredericksonâs friends eventually convinced him to turn himself in to Fenton Police, who then turned him over to authorities in Taylor. The pair had broken up in February and police confirmed that Faulkner was being stalked by Frederickson for months. Frederickson is being held without bond in the Wayne County Jail and, if convicted, faces life in prison without parole. (TD)
