The Honorable Seventh Judicial Circuit Court Judge Nichole Collier presided while Assistant District Attorney Kristen Strube represented the state.
All defendants entering not guilty pleas or charged with felonies are presumed innocent until convicted or pleading guilty.
Charges may be amended in future proceedings.

Misdemeanor charges included in the same case advance with the felony and to district court, where a formal plea is entered.
A bail bondsman can post a surety bond, typically requiring at least 15%.
A “personal recognizance” or “signature” bond means there is no money required to get out, but the defendant could owe the full amount if they fail to appear.
Factors affecting bond and sentencing include the nature of the crime, the weight of the evidence, ties to the community, and the defendant’s criminal history, including current bonds or active probations.
For probation revocations, the state is only required to prove the allegations in an affidavit for revocation “to a preponderance of the evidence.”
For defendants denying probation violations, a new bond is set.
