Court documents in the most recent case show Assistant District Attorney Martin McLemore referring to Davis criminal history as a reason not to reduce the bail amount. There is a robbery, as well as the open aggravated assault, there is also one prior failure to appear from 2019. At this time I would object to a reduction, said McLemore.
That request was denied. We are looking into whether or not we filed an appeal but we did object to it was by the time the bail was lowered in both of those cases, said Assistant District Attorney Joanne Pescatore at Tuesday s press conference.
