Lisbon – the cases against a man in Wellsville accused of threatening and harassing the police from Wellsville and a judge, having a car loaded in his car and did not comply with the police orders were related to the great jury of Colombian County.

Steven D. Wright, 45, Main Street, appeared on Friday in the county court with his lawyer, Joe King, in the custody of a deputy sheriff.

After a brief hearing, the judge in Carroll County, John Campbell, found a probable case to send both cases of crime in the big jury for examination and also agreed to send the two cases of crime, which the special prosecutor Jeffrey Jakmides and King have indicated to both of them.

Wright’s obligation of $ 200,000 or warranty has been continued.

Wright was accused of the fourth degree offense, which managed a firearm in a vehicle, two charges of the fifth crime aggravated threats and offenses of obstructing official affairs and two charges.

Jakmides called on the Patrol of the Wellsville Police, Aaron Youx, as his only witness for the preliminary hearing organized for the charges of crime.

Youllo confessed that the Police Department of February 18 received an appeal about an alarming video posted on Facebook by Steven Wright, with YouTx identifying him in the courtroom. In the video, he said that Wright said that if a mandate had been put for his arrest, he would have a fire exchange with the police. He also commented that the police think he would explode but he has nothing to lose and said “Make peace with your God.”

Jakmides mentioned that he added an element of seriousness to what was said.

According to YouTx, Wright said in the video that he “I realized what I will do to avoid any innocent victims.”

In the video, Wright spoke about how he would pull behind the police station and will go down his face live.

Jakmides asked if what Wright said caused him to believe he might be hurt.

“It was alarming for everyone from the police department”, “ Said Youax.

According to his testimony, Wright’s vehicle is usually parked on Main Street, next to the ninth street, about 3 minutes from the police department.

When the police went to find him and asked him to get his vehicle, he would have said that he would have to kill him, then after about an hour, he came out. During a search for his vehicle, a 9 mm pistol was found that would have been available from where he was sitting, loaded with empty -point bullets and one in the room.

During King’s interrogation, Youurex said the video was seen on February 18 and found it in its vehicle on February 20. King asked about the car itself and where the weapon was found, with Youllo indicating that the weapon was in the middle section of the back seat, and the front seats were divided.

“The facts seem to be undeniable and undeniable” Jakmides said.

King did not put Wright on the stand and did not provide any evidence, but told the judge what the testimony of the accusation of threatening was a crime, not an offense. He asked the court not to be linked to the case for aggravated threat.

However, Campbell agreed with criminal prosecution.

He was appointed to supervise the case after the judges of the Municipal Court in Colombian county, Kelly Linger and Tim McNicol, were refusing, citing a conflict of interest. McNicol was the judge would have harassed on the social networks by Wright.

Jakmides was appointed a special prosecutor after the Colombian County Prosecutor, Vito Abusino, cited a substantial conflict of interests, because the county prosecutor is the statutory lawyer for one of the alleged victims of the crime.
