A Bell County judge last week subtracted $625,000 from the bond amount that had been set in the case of a Killeen woman who was indicted last month on two felony charges after police said she caused an accident last year that left a 23-year-old man dead and another man injured.
Prior to the hearing, Alexus Nicol Williams, 23, was being held in the Bell County Jail in lieu of bonds totaling $750,000, on second-degree felony charges of manslaughter and aggravated assault causing serious bodily injury.
After hearing brief testimony from Williams and arguments from the attorneys, Judge Paul LePak on Thursday reduced the bond on the manslaughter charge from $500,000, to $75,000, and the assault bond from $250,000, to $50,000.
