Warrant Issued for No-Show Defendant

A defendant failed to show up for his probation show cause hearing on June 11.

Back in December 2019, Damani Sanders was sentenced to 24 months in confinement. The time was suspended, and he was required to serve five years of probation for attempting to commit robbery and carrying a pistol without a license outside a home or business.

After not complying with the conditions of his probation, Sanders was notified to return to court on May 5. There, he was released under high intensity supervision program (HISP) with GPS monitoring. 

Another notice of noncompliance was issued on June 2, and Sanders was ordered to return to court on June 11. However, he did not show up. 

Judge Rainey Brandt issued a bench warrant for his arrest.
