The trio were later arraigned at the Livingston County Centralized Arraignment Part (LC-CAP) at the Livingston County Jail before Town of Springwater Justice Johnson. The Judge did release Nathan May on his own recognizance, as the offenses do not qualify for bail under the NYS Bail Reform Act. Bruce May was remanded to the Custody of the Sheriff without the possibility of bail due to him having two or more prior felony convictions. The District Attorney’s Office recommended that Montel May be held on $5,000 cash bail or $20,000 bond. The Judge did remand Montel May to the custody of the Sheriff on the recommended bail.
The Livingston County Public Defender’s Office was present and represented all three at the court arraignments for their defense. The Livingston County District Attorney’s Office was notified and did also appear to represent the people.
