A $15,000 cash-only bond was set Tuesday for a detainee at the adult detention center accused of stabbing another detainee.
Jefferson County District Judge Kim Bridgforth set the bond after ruling prosecutors have probable cause to charge Timothy Mazique, 36, with second-degree battery.
Reading from an affidavit from Sheriff’s Capt. Yohance Brunson, Deputy Prosecutor Beth Carson said Brunson reported being notified of a stabbing at the jail at about 9:30 p.m. Sunday.
Carson said Mazique has a significant criminal history and has two drug and firearms-related cases pending. He is been held at the detention center since Aug. 4. Mazique was ordered to have no contact with Johnson, 50, who is being held on allegations of aggravated assault on a family or household member and third-degree domestic battery.
