Conditions of Release Modified and SCRAM Testing Removed
The defendant is charged with domestic assault and battery under G.L. c. 265 section 13M. He was placed on conditions of release that included submitting to the SCRAM device test several times per day. A few weeks ago the SCRAM registered a positive result after one of the tests and the assistant district attorney requested that the defendant’s bail be revoked and that he serve 90 days pending trial under the bail revocation portion of the bail statute. The judge denied that request and agreed to a hearing on the modification of the conditions of release. After a hearing the judge removed the SCRAM requirement. The defendant will no longer have to submit to alcohol screens while waiting for his case to be resolved.
