King said Verrien had no prior convictions or pending charges but Smiles had previously been convicted of felony fleeing.
Jefferson County District Judge Kim Bridgforth set bonds of $20,000 for Smiles and Verrien after ruling prosecutors have probable cause to charge them with two counts of first-degree battery. They were ordered to have no contact with the victim and said they would hire their own attorney
