When the judge reaffirmed that Dillard is being held without bond, a couple of the friends and family there for Gland let out sighs.
Porter County Deputy Prosecutor Cheryl Polarek requested that Dillard provide a full fingerprint and handprint as the investigation continues, which Alexa granted, saying it needed to be done in the next 10 days.
After the emotional hearing, those there on Gland's behalf were ushered into a room by the prosecutor's victims assistance office to be told how the court process works and to ask questions.
Born in Valparaiso, Gland "was a lifelong area resident," graduating from Portage High School in 2012, according to her obituary published Sunday. She "liked the simple things in life and enjoyed spending time with her family," and her friends looked to her for advice because "she was a very uplifting inspirational, sweet, kind and would do anything for anyone," according to the obituary. She had a love for chocolate, elephants, fall, the beach and watching sports, and she was a fan of the Chicago White Sox and Blackhawks, the obituary said.
Police previously reported that Gland was 24, but her obituary says she was 23 years old.
