Defense counsel argued that the accused’s continued commitment to treatment warranted a substantial reduction in bail.
The hearing opened with defense counsel emphasizing the accused’s rehabilitative efforts since his probation was revoked late last year.
Defense counsel then asked the court to reduce the accused’s bail in light of those efforts.
The sentence also included fines, community service, a nine-month first-offender alcohol program, a one-year driver’s license restriction, participation in a Youthful Drug and Alcohol Deterrence program and restitution.
In this case, the judge recognized the accused’s progress by reducing bail but ultimately declined to grant the larger reduction sought by the defense.
