Bond was set at $10,000 and was posted. Bond is to be set at the minimum amount necessary to assure one's appearance in court. The defendant seems to have ties to the community and the article does not indicate that this defendant has a record of missed court appearances, so there is not reason to believe that $10,000 bond is insufficient. Conditions of bail should be set so as to protect the public. It appears drug usage may have been a factor in the crash. That's why the defendant must comply with the terms of the Bail Monitoring Program. It seems he may have violated those terms resulting in the cash bond being raised.
There are very few situations where bond would be revoked for a defendant. The facts of this case are not typical of a situation where bond would be revoked. --- Robert F.
