If you ever find yourself in trouble with the law, just bring up Jan. 6, 2021. At the very least, it might get your bond lowered.
Court proceedings are unfolding for the suspects involved in the viral Cincinnati attack that took place July 26.
Judge Alan Triggs had originally set the bond for two individuals at a $200,000 secure bond and a $300,000 secure bond. These were for 24-year-old Dekyra Vernon and 25-year-old Aisha Devaughn, respectively according to WCPO.
Triggs has now lowered both bonds for these women to $25,000, of which each must pay 10 percent.
Vernon’s defense attorney, Clyde Bennett II argued that his client was being overcharged and that the events of that night had been mischaracterized.
“Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the United States Capitol. That’s a riot. When you get together, you assemble and you plan to commit a crime, that’s not what happened down on Fourth Street, judge,” Bennett argued.
Footage posted to social media platform X from that night indicates where the two women were when things became violent.
