yeah

wonder how long before she has a fresh manicure? Awful woman should be allowed out on bail only if she is forced to live in the same conditions she subjected her children to, you know, the ones she referred to as oldest, kid 1, and kid 2 in her phone contacts

I cannot figure out why she had phone access when she was calling the minor victims

Nails, bail, and now jail. I'm seeing a theme...

Bryant arrived at the station wearing clean clothes, her hair was done, and she was wearing long fake nails.

Brennan found that Walker did not abuse her discretion during the preliminary examination and said, “there’s no question in the court’s mind that to a probable cause standard, the testimony that was presented in front of Judge Walker supported that the crime was committed and that to a probable cause standard she (Bryant) committed it.”

Bryant’s attorney, Cecilia Quirindongo-Baunsoe, said the defense team will likely file an interlocutory appeal, which is an appeal of a ruling while the case is still moving forward.

Another pretrial conference was scheduled for Thursday, July 24, at 1:30 p.m., but that could change if an interlocutory appeal does get filed.

I'll give Quirindongo-Baunsoe credit, she is fiercely advocating for the accused.

I think an interlocutory appeal on this issue will not get any traction and is a time waste, but at least her client won't ever be able to claim Ineffective assistance of counsel JMO
