CLEARWATER, Fla. (AP) — A Florida judge on Tuesday kept bond at $100,000 for a man charged with manslaughter in the fatal shooting of a man who assaulted him outside a convenience store in a dispute over parking.
Judge Joseph Bulone in the Pinellas County court on Tuesday said that if Michael Drejka posts bail, he must surrender all of his guns to the sheriff, wear an ankle monitor and not leave the county. He said he didn’t have the money to hire a private attorney, which means a public defender will be appointed. Drejka appeared in court from the county jail via video.
