Judge Says No Bond For Stallworth
July 30, 2009
Donnie Ray Stallworth, Jr. will remain in the Escambia County Jail without bond on charges that he was involved in the shooting death of Byrd and Melanie Billings on July 9.
Escambia County Circuit Judge Joyce H. Williams denied bond for Stallworth Wednesday during his first court appearance via a video feed from the county jail.
Stallworth, 28, turned himself into Alabama authorities at the Escambia County Detention Center in Brewton the night of July 13. He had remained in the Brewton jail without bond until his extradition to Florida Tuesday morning.
Williams denied bond because she considered him a flight risk and because of the serious charges against him. Stallworth is one of seven people charged with open counts of murder in connection with the Billings murders.
At the time of the murders, Stallworth was assigned to the 1st Special Operations Aircraft Maintenance Squadron at Hurlburt Field. The 1999 T.R. Miller High School graduate is a Brewton native. His family still resides in the Brewton area.
