<p>Here’s an update:</p>
<p>WOBURN — When Brittany Smith’s longtime boyfriend sought entry to her Harvard University dormitory, allegedly for a drug deal, she handed over her electronic-access card, prosecutors said yesterday. But Smith did not stop at that, they said.</p>
<p>She watched as assailants loaded the 9mm handgun used to kill 21-year-old Justin D. Cosby last May, according to prosecutors and court papers. After the slaying, she took the gun — allegedly handed to her by her boyfriend, Jabrai Jordan Copney — and hid it in a friend’s dorm room, prosecutors said.</p>
<p>Smith then hailed a taxi that took her, Copney, and two other suspects to South Station and paid their bus fare back to New York, said the prosecutors.</p>
<p>Smith, an aspiring lawyer from Harlem, pleaded not guilty yesterday to charges of being an accessory after the fact of the murder of Cosby, a suspected drug dealer from Cambridge whose killing inside Harvard’s Kirkland House dorm shattered the quiet of campus as students studied for final exams.</p>
<p>Smith, a 22-year-old scholarship student whom Harvard barred from graduating last spring after she was linked to the case, was also charged with lying to police investigating the killing, the first committed inside a Harvard facility since 1995.</p>
<p>The “indictment of Brittany Smith is a significant step in unraveling the truth in this case, and holding her accountable for her alleged complicity in, and subsequent attempts to cover up, the murder of Justin Cosby,’’ Middlesex District Attorney Gerard T. Leone Jr. said in a statement yesterday.
