I cannot believe this man’s bond was ONLY $75,000! Isn’t abducting a soldier of the U.S. Army a Federal crime? Well, if it isn’t, it certainly should be.
I don’t think he should have been given the opportunity to bond out, at all. He’s obviously capable of flight and has proven he’s pretty good at hiding out.
I pray for Pfc. J. Lewis’ sake and safety that this man doesn’t have a network of family or friends that (as we read this) is fast and furiously putting $$ in a hat for his release!
