Those with knowledge of the case are wondering why Abbey wasn't placed on a 1275.1 also known as a 1205 bail hold.
This is when the defendant is required to show that the money to be used to make bail didn't come as a result of a criminal enterprise.
The marjuana grow that was found along with a log book of sales combined with scales, packaging material, pre-weighed packages ready for sale, and a loaded weapon make the suggestion of a criminal enterprise being conducted.
The illegal way she conducted her rental business suggests that money from it could be considered ill gotten gains.
Abbey's bail is set too low. Right now there's a man in the Sheriff's custody for attempted murder and his bail is set at $2.5 Million so why is Abbey's bail only at $300,000 when she actually killed someone?
Did Chief Investigator/Assistant D.A. Dave Harris even read the complaint after all his initials are on it?
Or is everything by design.
This case reeks of special favoritism from beginning to end.
