“It’s kind of us is a wakeup call that in certain cases, some people just shouldn’t be out on the streets,” said Ward. “They’re a threat to society.”

Ward is preparing a bill that would not allow bond for these specific offenses: murder, rape in the first degree, first degree sodomy, sexual abuse, sexual torture, human trafficking or kidnapping.

“I think this is done in a way that’s thoughtful,” he said. “It’s not overreaching, but at the same time provides for public safety.”

“I’ve seen it upheld in other states,” said Ward. “It’s constitutional. It’s been said so by the courts, but more importantly than people filing lawsuits, it’s about the public safety, victims.”

Elijah and Yashiba Blanchard, Aniah’s father and step-mother, sent ABC 33/40 this statement:

“The Blanchards are thankful for the continued prayers and support for our family as we seek justice for Aniah and honor her name and legacy. One being an officer of the court, they respect the court’s standing gag order against the accused in the Aniah Blanchard case and support the integrity of the judicial process. They hope state legislators utilize their resources and power to enact legislation during the upcoming session that protects citizens in similar circumstances by withholding bond for those accused of certain heinous crimes.”

"I truly believe a judge’s discretion," said Ward. "While they should have it, it should be limited to a certain point. This is right and this is wrong, and a lawmaker has that job as well. "
Proposed bill inspired by Aniah Blanchard would limit who qualifies for bond
 
I believe this is David Johnson, jr. father - ?

Suspect in Murder of Aniah Blanchard Has His Preliminary Hearing Delayed - Alabama News

Posted: Apr 9, 2020 6:48 PM CDT

Ibraheem Yazeed, the prime suspect in 19-year-old Aniah Blanchard’s kidnapping and murder, has had his preliminary hearing delayed.

Yazeed is now due in court on June 3. That’s because the coronavirus outbreak has delayed court cases. His hearing had originally been scheduled for March, then had been moved to April [13].

He is being held in the Lee County Jail without bond since his November 8 arrest in connection with the Blanchard case.

This is one of the first cases I followed when I joined this forum, Aniah and her family always crosses my mind. Her mom's dedication to making her legacy live on as well as always posting an making aware of current missing cases. I haven't seen an obituary for her though. RIP sweet girl.
 
So many guards needing to contain him even with Tazers, Aniah did not have a chance with that monster. Reading that article again makes me so mad again on how he has done so much and was out roaming. I hope it finally hits him he is never getting out.
