Over prosecution objections, a judge on Tuesday granted bail to a murder defendant who had been locked up without bond since October because he was on probation at the time of the shooting.
Mobile County District Judge George Zoghby set a $200,000 bail on the murder charge for Joseph Michael Timmons, plus $50,000 each on a pair of related robbery charges. He ordered him to have no contact with the victim’s family and prohibited him from having guns.
After the Mobile County Sheriff’s Office arrested Timmons, his probation officer filed a delinquency report. A judge revoked probation in January and sentenced him to 269 days in jail, with credit for time served.
