Corey Walker has been denied bail after his attorney Christopher Darden requested bail for his client. Judge Curtis B. Rappe agreed with the prosecution, stating that Walker should not be eligible for bail considering the state of California’s laws. This means that Walker will remain in jail until the trial begins.
Although Walker will not be receiving bail, Walker will also not be facing the death penalty. Judge Rappe stated that the case was no longer a Capital case, granting the prosecution’s suggestion to remove the death penalty. Walker instead is facing a max sentence of life without parole.
