Jack Redmon says a fire has destroyed his home since hes been in jail and wants his bond reduced. However, it remains at $300,000 after a recent hearing.
Jack Redmon may be stuck behind bars until this summer after the court rejected his request for lower bond for the alleged stabbing of fellow businessman Mike Hale outside the VFW in August.Redmon, 44, is set to stand trial June 29 on charges of attempted murder and aggravated assault. The top charge of attempted murder could get him as much 25 years in prison if he is convicted, but he could be eligible for release on time served after his trial if he is convicted on the lesser count of aggravated assault.Redmon is accused of stabbing Hale outside the VFW after the men had exchanged words and threats, their bad blood reportedly coming over Hale’s estranged wife, Brooke Hale, who Redmon was allegedly seeing at the time. Hale suffered stab wounds to the chest and midsection.Brooke Hale is charged with the same crime but she is free on $100,000 bond.
