(Davenport, IA) -- Bond is reduced for a former LeClaire in-home daycare provider accused of killing an infant last year.
On Tuesday, a Scott County Judge reduced the $1 million cash-only bond for for 56 year old Angela Marxen to $500,000. Marxen must post 10%, or $50,000, to be released from the Scott County Jail.
Marxen is charged with first-degree murder, child endangerment resulting in death, and child endangerment. Marxen has pleaded not guilty to the charges, and a formal arraignment is scheduled for May 13th.
Her attorney, Steve Hanna, says Marxen is, “really not a threat to the community at all," and that she has cooperated with police “from the very beginning.”
