Here’s what Judge Dustin Hightower saidAfter considering their testimony as well as that of other Brock family members, Judge Dustin Hightower stated, “I believe those closest (to Patrick)… have vast concerns,” that she would be able to escape while on bond and would continue to be a threat to them and the community, as per 11Alive.
