A judge has revoked bail for a woman accused of killing her 2-year-old daughter after prosecutors say the woman was making arrangements while in jail to try to flee the country.
MORONI, Sanpete County —
Doctors contacted the Sanpete County Sheriff's Office after they said they discovered signs of abuse. During a hearing on Jan. 11, a judge determined that Cruz is a flight risk but still set a bail of $150,000 over the objection of Sanpete County Attorney Kevin Daniels who argued that Cruz should be held in jail without bail pending trial, according to court records. Cruz is from Honduras and was charged in 2016 with entering the U.S. illegally.
During the conversation, Cruz tells the man, "I'll go to Honduras with you if you want," according to a motion filed by prosecutors to have her bail revoked."The recording picks up with the defendant stating to , 'The first thing is getting out of here. Once I get out, I'll figure it out. I have a lot of family in other states and they will help me,'" the motion states."Remember I had previously told you we should go and you didn't want to.
