The Nassau Guardian reports that a judge yesterday gave a man accused of death threats bail on his own recognizance.<\/p>\n
Devon Adderley, 25, of Rockcrusher Road, was accused of threatening to kill Lashan Smith on February 10, just three days before he allegedly attacked her with a knife.<\/p>\n
Police dealt with the attempted murder case first, however. Adderley was released for that case and ordered to wear an ankle bracelet. As a condition on of bail it was also ordered that he have no contact with Smith.<\/p>\n
Adderley did not breach those conditions, but he was remanded into custody on arraignment for the death threat case on April 19.<\/p>\n
Adderley’s lawyer, Calvin Seymour said Adderley should not be denied bail on the threat case because it preceded the attempted murder charge.<\/p>\n
Seymour also pointed out that Adderley was being monitored electronically.<\/p>\n
Senior Justice Jon Isaacs released Adderley his own recognizance and reminded him that his attempted murder trial begins in the Supreme Court on November 7.<\/p>\n
