Broward Circuit Judge David Haimes must set bail for a felon charged with second-degree murder for a fatal shooting at his Hollywood home, a state appeals court ruled Tuesday in granting a habeas corpus petition.
Haimes sided with the state in July when he denied bond to Dallas Seymour in the May 26 killing of Darryl Keith Hardnett. Haimes found the state met its burden that the proof was “evident and the presumption great” that a jury would convict Seymour as charged, but the defense insists the shooting was accidental.
