Someone bonded her out and she's now out on an ankle monitor, it sounds like.

EDIT: It still shows her as an inmate on Inmate Lookup Tool -- lists her in an isolation unit.
EDIT 2: Actually that sounds more like she can't be bonded out?

Vine also shows she's still in custody. I was wondering about "Party held for other agency." I don't find any other agency that wants her (yet).

It sounds like another agency has a hold on her for some reason?
PTR - Prior to Release she would be fit for monitoring

IMO

Yes, in the last article it mentioned that. I did not know either!!
Me either, but it sure makes a lot more sense as to how they all conspired to pull this off.

MOO

<snipped & BBM>

At Robertson's initial court appearance Tuesday afternoon, she told the judge she has three children and is currently pregnant. She was in tears throughout the short hearing. Her father was in the courtroom and said it is probably the last time he'll get to see her for awhile.

Heaven help those poor children.

MOO
Three children including Amiah or?

I think 3 not including Amiah. She had a son before Amiah, then another son after Amiah, then a daughter, and now she's pregnant again.

At first I thought it meant that some other jurisdiction had a claim on Amber but then I realized it may mean that the "other agency" is the agency that would be in charge of putting an Electronic Monitoring Device on Amber, i.e. an ankle monitor.

IOW if Amber makes bail LE is gonna install a monitor on her butt to make sure she stays put. MOO.

[...]

Robertson is slated to go to a jury trial in November.

[...]

The babysitter is expected to be one of several witnesses expected to testify in the upcoming trial.

If found guilty on all four counts, the maximum amount of time Robertson and Lyons could be sentenced to is 20.5 years.

[...]

Robertson made her initial court appearance on Tuesday. According to a report by FOX 59, she wiped tears from her eyes as she shuffled into a courtroom at the Community Justice Center, clad in a yellow jumpsuit, her face partially covered by a mask as a result of COVID restrictions.

The young mother told the court she currently cares for three children, is pregnant, dropped out of 10th grade, has no assets or job and can't afford an attorney.

According to a report by FOX 59, Amber's father, Chuck Robertson, was in attendance for her court appearance, wearing a "Where is Amiah?" t-shirt.

[...]

Chuck Robertson said he did not know his daughter was pregnant until it was announced in court.

"He used to beat on her," he said. "He used to smack the kids."

"I believe those threats are still active. I believe he is still making those threats toward her."

[...]

Right, so she knows she's dead and isn't even counting her as her child anymore.

She wasn’t forced to drop out of 10th grade, she could get a job, she is the one having a baby every year. Nobody is forcing her to do that. Heck, does she know who the bio father is for each child so she can at least get child support?

< modsnip - quoted post was removed as was reference to it>
……….It was all sorts of weird if she were his mom given they were all hanging out at a hotel together with the baby [MOO] doing drugs [/MOO].

MOO, I wonder if it got reported like that because in some communities people call non-bio family "mom" or "sister" to indicate that they're close--e.g. the witness they spoke with in the article might have been JB and she just casually mentioned being RL's "mom" and they just ran with it.

It would be interesting at this point to go back and look at the previously reported info from 3 years ago with what we know today and reconstruct a timeline. It kind of sounds like RL, Amber, JB, and other people were all together at the Waterfront Hotel on 3/8, RL drove JB home on the 9th (with Amiah and Amber in the car?), and then there was video surveillance footage of them stopping at a nearby dumpster in the neighborhood shortly after dropping her off.
