My friend was recently arrested for 2nd degree burglary, Victim has fled the country for his own legal matters ( he is handling case over the sea through attorney), and thus refusing to give any further statement from his side. The reporting party who worked with the victim also is leaving the country by the end of this month and do not want to be involved into the matter further ( he is illegally staying in the country so I believe that might be why).

Friend is currently facing 6 felonies and 3 misdemeanors in two different counties.

His defense attorney mentioned today in hearing that defendant is waiving the right for preliminary hearing in exchange for the offer that has been extended by the district attorney and ask this matter to bound over to the division court few weeks later.

Does that mean likely they are working on plea negotiations like deferred adjunctions or diversion type of probation or do they need more time to gather evidence to fight the case?

My friend was arrested 3 weeks ago for 2nd degree burglary and attempted misdemanor/felony for criminal attempts - during the arrest, apparently he had warrant and charges out for fugitive of justice in same county that he was living in.

He cut off everyone including me since then- including his ex-wife that he just divorced and his kid is also being taken care by strictly his mom.

I saw his court information online, so contacted court clerk- apparently the fugitive case has 4 felonies and 1 misdemanor under it - 2 felony thefts, 2 felony cyber crime, 1 unemployment fraud (I was aware of this one, he mentioned they mailed him and he needs to pay back)

I have no idea what he did for cyber crimes, but assuming it must be related to the money.

I have gone through legal fight myself for one felony that got dismissed and that was already stressful enough for me, can't imagine handling these many charges at the same time.

How are things looking for him? any chance he could get deferred judgement or probation? I am also wondering how he got fugitive of justice case from the county that he has been living in for years. He never ran away anywhere and I have been close friend for 4 years, had no idea he was doing any cyber crimes or thefts and wondering how these popped up all suddenly when he was arrested for burglary in other county.

Curious if anyone knows updates regarding scrooge sul bar on the hill that recently has closed down. apparently 10 victims came forward and witnessed that owner of the bar harassed them and made videos of the victims. Is there an official suspect now and warrant out for the person? Was it just the owner that did all these or were there other employees who participated

My friend was recently charged with 2nd degree burglary at empty residence through the window and I had no idea about his previous crime out of state (I know he went to Jail long time ago), I guess that warrant showed up, so he was also arrested for fugitive of justice and bonded out of jail for both cases with upcoming courts. I am not familiar with law, but did chatgpt and seems like it may be a heavy case since fugitive case is being handled at District court instead of county.

For Fugitive, it shows as arraignment for upcoming court under miscellaneous. He recently lost employment and also divorced, so he doesn't have any money. I have no idea what initial crime he ran away from the other state and how long it was ago. Would he most likely be put back into custody for awhile since he might need to be extradited? I want to be supportive but he has cut off everyone, and I am afraid he might make radical decision.
