FIRST ON FOX — Arizona rancher George Alan Kelly, who is facing murder and other charges in the shooting of a Mexican national on his border property, has been released from custody, Fox News Digital confirmed Thursday. 

Santa Cruz County Sheriff's Office Chief Deputy Gerardo Castillo confirmed that 73-year-old Kelly posted bond Wednesday after appearing in court. 

Judge Emilio Velasquez had upheld Kelly's $1 million bond, though agreed to convert it from cash to surety. He also set the next hearing date for Friday despite the defense pleading for a continuance of 30 to 60 days to allow time to confer with experts and gather the forensic and ballistic evidence they say authorities have neglected to process.

I went ahead and read a more detailed article on this incident seems the migrants were under fire from Mr Kelly armed with his ak47 they posed no threat nor was there a verbal confrontation nor warning given the man who was killed was shot in the back as he was fleeing from Mr Kelley towards Mexico somehow I feel if the rhetoric was tone down mr Kelley wouldn’t think that it was appropriate to take potshots at migrants very sad indeed I’ll keep track of his trial should be interesting
