Hayden bonded out
The former police chief accused of the 1972 murder of Camp Lejeune Marine William Miller bonded out of the Onslow County Jail on Friday.
As a condition of Hayden’s pre-trial release, Onslow County District Court Judge Jim Moore ordered Hayden’s home in Beaufort and his son’s home in Cape Carteret be used as a guarantee Hayden will appear in court.
“The homes must be put up for collateral,” Moore said. “If he runs, the roof over his grandchildren’s heads will be taken away.”

He shouldnt be out? Come on now. Last I heard he was still innocent until proven guilty. Or have we forgotten that as a society? There is no reason to hold him without bond, he doesnt have any prior convictions, and I think leins on two properties are enough to keep him from going anywhere.

How ironic today being Veterans day when we honor our Veterans, that we hear dear ole’
George is out. This veteran who so cold heartedly shot a Marine brother in the back,
what a hero! You state innocent until proven guily, well, he was Williams judge and jury
and sentenced him to death. You state he had no prior convictions, well being Chief of
Police, how do we know what was swept under the carpet? He certainly has no conscience. It is unfortunate that the judge has to abide by 1972 laws, or he would not
be out.

O.k. Transplant for the billionth time “Innocent until proven guilty” BLA BLA BLA everyone knows this it is elementary. I love it ………some of you can’t think of anyother ways to express your frustration with those who don’t want a murdurer out in society so lets try to shut other bloggers up by throwing in the “innocent until proven guilty” comment. The reason to hold him without bond is simple it’s called charged with conspiracy and murder 1. How would you know he has no priar mis-doings? It may not be on the books but he knows. Bond right or wrong in the eys of William’s family they don’t agree and you would’nt either if it was your love one or you felt threatend by George.

Well, yes, innocent until proven guilty, so let’s go get a trial going so we can do that proving!!!! I don’t see why we can’t hold people without bond when the case is very serious. After all, ‘flight risks’ are probably not pemitted to be released on bond.
This case is so cold-blooded, heartless, and calculated that I just can’t think it is anything but dangerous to let the conspirators out into the general public.
Prior misdeeds? Well, how do we know? Police Chief? “Here you are, foxy, just go feed this nice mash to the chickens!!!!!!”
