A $10,000 bond was set Monday for a Pine Bluff woman accused of having two of her relatives beat a man she had been involved with romantically before an altercation between the two.
Jefferson County District Judge Kim Bridgforth set the bond after ruling prosecutors have probable cause to charge Sylvia Smith, 52, with aggravated residential burglary and second offense third-degree domestic battery.
During the court hearing, Deputy Prosecutor Maxie Kizer explained the allegation.
Kizer said Smith was previously convicted of misdemeanor domestic battery in 2023. She was ordered to have no contact with the victim and told to come back to court Aug. 11.
