UPDATE: Probation Violation Could Delay Bail
Thomas Robison, the MC student who allegedly stabbed a local man over the weekend, was arraigned today at the Marietta Municipal Court.
According to the report from the Marietta Times, Robison violated the terms of his probation, stemming from a OVI (operating a vehicle while intoxicated) charge he picked up last year. Â He received a 33 day suspended sentence, which he would not have had to serve if he had not violated his probation. Â Alongside the first-degree felony robbery charge, he was also charged with first-degree misdemeanor probation violation. Â This means that he may have to serve the 33 days he was originally charged with before he can post bail.
This news should put many students at ease, since the College has not publicly stated their course of action yet. Â But with the potential of 33 days before Robison can post bail, they can now take their time to investigate the situation and formulate a plan of action.
