Now how much would they have paid the family to denie the right for bail ?? Would look a bit pathetic if they filed for bale and it was granted and he would be walking around again soon wouldn't it ?? He denied intention to kill her , but he did . And he denied any attempt to rape her but he did anyway . Next he will denie it was him in the first place although he confessed already .

Why would they?

 

They must know he's total scumbag and drug addict.

 

He'd have to stay with them.  That would be a nightmare.
