A judge denied a defendant’s release, but she said she will rehear his case in two days.
Roscoe Jones is charged with assault with intent to kill with a sharp object, assault with significant bodily injury, assault with a dangerous weapon (sharp object), assault with significant bodily injury while armed with a sharp object, unlawful possession of contraband in a penal institution and destruction of property less than $1000.
Judge Anita Josey-Herring said she would rehear the defense’s argument on April 15 in order to give Jones’ attorney more time to gather more information on his condition to support his motion for release during the COVID-19 pandemic.
