Man Held Without Bail in 13 year old Hania Aguilar's Murder- adriana chavez

https://www.cnn.com/2018/12/10/us/hania-aguilar-kidnapping-killing/index.html

Michael Ray McLellan made his first court appearance with charges of the murder and kidnapping of 13 year-old Hania Aguilar. He has been denied bail on first-degree murder along with other charges including first-degree burglary, and robbery with a dangerous weapon. Hania went missing about a month prior from her driveway into a relative's idling SUV and drove off. Her body was recently found in a body of water off of a rural road, with the SUV abandoned about 10 miles before.

Analysis:
This article was published today by CNN news and has been kept updated throughout the day. I had zero prior knowledge to this subject, I wasn't even aware of the fact that you could be denied a bail. In my opinion, I think it was correct to deny him a bail due to the prior crimes he committed which included an unrelated rape case in 2016. This case had him on a bail of $5 million, and was soon bailed out. I feel that now he can actually face the consequences of the crimes he committed to the full extent in prison because now there isnt a chance he gets to be bailed out like nothing happened. I feel like he didn't even try to become a better person because he went from rape crimes to now kidnappings and murder cases. This shows there is an unacceptable risk of his behaviors that must be prevented so no more people wind up injured, or even dead.

  2. I wonder what compelled him to commit such a heinous act. I'm glad the law caught up with him before he could do worse.

  3. Im glad that justice was able to be served in the end but i think that bail can sometimes be too forgiving

  4. You can be denied bail if they believe that you would be a danger in the public. I hope he gets the jail time he deserves.
