Willis’ attorney, Billy Ray Hall, spoke with Fox News as he waited in the jail for his client to be released. Justice of the Peace Brown told Fox News on Friday that she never intended for the bond to be punitive and she knew the bond would be reduced and that Willis did too. The district court judge promptly agreed and reduced the bond without a hearing. Willis’ family was then able to make a deal with Anderson and White Bail Bond and posted it Monday morning, according to Hall. Hall originally thought he would call for a bond reduction hearing to get the bond reduced below the $150,000 dollars, but now it’s moot.
