sed ned

Yesterday I spent the day with my estranged brother Ned and his wife, Neddy, at the Collin County Court house where we reconnected, and testified in the Bond Reduction Hearing for Sed the formerly incarcerated.

Hiring the Attorney was the best thing we did with our money.

Sed's $10k bond was deemed Insufficient by the judge after his case was reviewed by the grand jury and raised to $50k. That's 5,000 bail and collateral.

He was rearrested in January.

Neddy has been studying to become a Criminal Law Attorney and knew some tricks.

For all of you out there who have Myspace accounts and haven't learned from the cases you may have heard about high school cheer leaders posting suggestive photos, or high school baseball players being kicked off teams for comments "made in jest" about coaches....

Thank you!!!

The guy who accused Sed has such a MySpace account.
He makes comments about the charges. He makes comments about liking rough sex.

And Neddy paid it a visit and printed off a number pages from his page, his friend's pages, and from his attached blog.

And gave them to the defence attorney!

This guy has shot himself in the foot (and then stuck it in his mouth).

And yes, we did get Sed out on reduced bond.
Which was not going to happen till both Ned and I testified.

Moral of the story,
Pay the money to get a good attorney up front
cause if you are accused and go to jail,
the system is against you...

and on that note,
while at the bond company filling out the paper work, there was a guy there with warrant aganst him paying his bond,
then all he had to do was turn himself in and he would be immediately released.

Smart...
