The $400 bond may as well be a $40,000 bond if you dont have the means to hire a bonds man or pay a cash bond. Keep in mind he was arrested on 6/1 and and as of 6/4 he is still in jail on that same $400 bond.
Oh yeah, apparently even the first appearance judge believed this to be a “reasonable” bond as it wasnt changed at the first court appearance. The Judge had every responsibility to adjust the bond – higher or lower – if it wasnt appropriate.
Wow, bond is really high!! This guy has been charged at least 18 times in the past for all kinds of things and his bond is set at $400??? I guess they are just waiting for him to kill someone and then bond will be set at $500!
