Devonne Marsh was initially able to post $5,000 bond
A Detroit man who set his pregnant girlfriend on fire has been re-charged in the case and was being held on a raised cash bond of $750,000 after he posted $5,000 bond last week and walked out of jail, according to a local report.
Devonne Marsh, 42, allegedly doused his 26-year-old live-in girlfriend with lighter fluid and set her on fire during a Jan. 14 argument at their home. The woman is reportedly 6-and-a-half months pregnant with twins.
Marsh was initially held on $50,000 bond, or 10%, which allowed him to post $5,000 to make bail last week, FOX2 Detroit reported. While Marsh was released from Wayne County Jail, he had remained in custody on an unrelated warrant in Macomb County.
While being held in the Macomb County Jail, Marsh appeared virtually on Monday in Wayne County court.
Prosecutors argued for a $1 million bond, citing Marsh’s a long criminal record with past charges including drugs, guns, and assault.
Marsh’s defense argued for the initial bond of $50,000 or 10%, according to the station, and said the prosecution’s decision to re-charge Marsh was prejudicial and only happened after the case made headlines.
The judge ultimately ordered Marsh held on $750,000 bond.

And he would be correct.
For once, media coverage did its job
Whether she dies or not, if guilty he, he should.
Someone get on the phone to Mr. Soros and tell him his plan isn't working.
Gee, I bet the 1/6 capital trespassers would love the opportunity for bail. I guess obumber was right, because I don’t recognize this country anymore.
Unfortunately it is, we have too many innocent lives lost to say otherwise.
I guessed correctly.
Follower of Islam?
I looked.
I didn’t need to.
....................
I’m going to go out on a limb here and say I’ll bet the “live-in girlfriend” is white.
Good luck finding her picture.
Ditto.
I’m good with that
probably! Imbecile
RE: Charming fellow.
Feels misunderstood, I’m sure. Media coverage can do that.
He probably feels like this other suspect:
MADISON, Wis. (AP) Dec. 1, 2021— The man accused of driving his SUV through a Christmas parade in suburban Milwaukee, killing six people and injuring dozens, said Wednesday that he feels like he’s being “demonized.”
Darrell Brooks Jr., in an interview with Fox News from the Waukesha County Jail, offered no details about a possible motive.
“I just feel like I’m being monster – demonized,” Brooks said, according to the Fox report.
Suspect picture....
Same one they used for the new church choir brochure. A baritone.
Only missed choir practice when he was in jail a few times.
