The alleged accomplice in the murder of professor Judy Calder testified Friday that he feared Mohamed Kamaludeen, the man charged with her murder.
Kamaludeen faces one count of murder with a deadly weapon of a person aged 60 or older and one count of solicitation to commit murder in the Aug. 19, 2007 murder of Calder, a professor of Human Development and Family Studies. Hunters found her body near the Nevada-Idaho border on Aug. 28.
Police arrested Carlos Filomeno, the alleged accomplice and two-time felon, on Aug. 30 on unrelated charges. He said he wanted protection from Kamaludeen.
“He might end up killing me too,” he said.
The pair then traveled to Arizona to drop of equipment for Kamaludeen’s company.
Filomeno said he called Kamaludeen once or twice after dumping Calder’s body.
He said Kamaludeen called Calder’s phone multiple times after he dumped the body, each time hanging up.
Michael Duda, former manager of Big O tires in Chandler, Ariz., testified that Kamaludeen bought four brand new tires for his cargo van, despite the old tires only having 10,000 miles on them.
Duda said Kamaludeen kept the four old tires. Filomeno testified Thursday that he pushed the tires out of the van incrementally during the return trip to Reno.
