PENSACOLA, Fla. (AP) - A woman charged as an accessory in the
home-invasion shooting deaths of Panhandle couple is in custody
after a judge raised her bond from $10,000 to $500,000.
Circuit Judge Frank Bell ordered Pamela Long Wiggins jailed
following Monday's hearing. The judge granted prosecutors' request
to raise the bond because a grand jury increased charges against
her from a third-degree, evidence-tampering felony to a
first-degree felony earlier this month. She is charged as an
accessory to first degree murder, which could carry a 30-year
sentence.
Six men and a 16-year-old boy have been charged with two counts
of first-degree murder in the July 9 deaths of Byrd and Melanie
Billings. The couple had adopted 13 children, many with special
needs.

Talk about trying someone via the media. FYI, that is a DRIVERS LICENSE photo, not a mugshot.

Opinions are a dime a dozen, facts are hard to come by. A reasonable doubt is seriously difficult.

They would still have to register the cars and get tags though. Wouldn’t they? Just sounds crooked to me.

What was weird to me was how he was talking about his business so casually. He had a booming business selling cars to illegal immigrants until the sheriff decided to start rounding up those folks.

How the heck does that work without landing the guy in jail?
