Bond Battle for Former Jail Officer | Virginia Beach News

Former corrections officer Josh Goins, facing malicious wounding charges after allegedly pepper spraying, cuffing, and slamming an inmate into a door, had his $5,000 bond granted — but the prosecution is appealing. Goins, who’s since been fired and has no prior record, remains jailed pending the appeal, set for July 31. Meanwhile, his fellow officer Corey Lott’s bond was denied, with the judge bluntly stating “once the cuffs are on, the fight should be over,” and his appeal is scheduled for August 5. Both cases are heating up as legal battles unfold. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
