Back Behind Bars

For the second time in less than four months, 19-year old Jonathan Hadley is wearing handcuffs and jailhouse stripes. Investigators say the teenager's latest run-in with the law happened Sunday at a mobile home park on Highway 98 in the Barnwell community. Police say Hadley shot his friend in the leg.

But the felony assault charge is the least of Hadley's worries. Hadley was out on bond for a September 2009 murder in which police say he threw a street sign at a car, killing the driver.

"It's extremely unusual for something like this to happen to somebody who's out on bond for murder," says Sgt. Craig Sawyer with the Fairhope Police Dept. "To be in a situation where he's handling a firearm that results in an injury of one of his friends."

Baldwin County Judge Jody Bishop set Hadley's bond on the assault charge at 150-thousand dollars. Hadley will be back in court Thursday for a bond revocation hearing on the murder charge. If Hadley's bond is revoked, he could stay behind bars until the murder trial.
