Barrett has been charged by Lehigh Tp police after an October 27 one-car accident along Lehigh Drive. Tow passengers who were in the car with her were injured.
She was in court to waive her preliminary hearing, which essentially is an admission that there is sufficient evidence to send the matter to court. Pretrial services recommended an increase in bail because she had violated bail conditions by testing positive for alcohol.
Barrett was rendered emergency treatment by officers, constables and Judge Hawke. She was taken to Lehigh Valley Hospital, where she is expected to recover from her injuries.
Court sources inform that Barrett may at this point be committed for a mental health evaluation.
District Attorney Terry Houck is also investigating whether Barrett should be charged with bringing a weapon into the courtroom.
I guess that she could have easily brought in a gun?
ReplyDeleteIt is obvious that she needs help!
ReplyDeletePoor lady , she’s obviously distraught. This is too bad . Her family needs to heal her. Geez.🙏
ReplyDeleteSo Sad! God Bless Her
ReplyDeleteAtta boy Terry! You want a step stool for that slam dunk?
ReplyDeleteMezzacappa, the case against you is the real slam dunk.
ReplyDeleteSpeaking of Mezzacappa, wasn't she supposed to have a trial recently? May I assume that it was continued again?
ReplyDeleteGreat job by Judge Hawke. Also would like to say that Constables get banged on constantly, and sometimes for good reason, but it appears they did a great job here!
ReplyDeletePerfect example why the Sheriff's should replace these constables just like Lehigh County did.
ReplyDeleteI agree the constables are not trained well and it shows.
ReplyDeleteLehigh County didn't replace any constables, know your facts.
