Marissa Alexander to remain free as she awaits new trial
Marissa Alexander will be able to continue on house arrest and remain with her family and children until the trial starts on March 31st.
Marissa Alexander will remain free pending her trial.

Marissa Alexander is free
Alexander will be able to continue on house arrest and remain with her family and children until the trial starts on March 31st.
State Prosecutor Angela Corey filed a motion alleging that Marissa Alexander broke the conditions of her release by making unauthorized trips outside her home.
Yet, Alexander’s legal team presented proof that the Correctional Service Counselor who supervised Alexander’s house arrest authorized every trip listed in the State’s motion and the Counselor asserts that Alexander is not in violation of her release.
Case
Alexander was released on bond shortly before Thanksgiving. She was granted a new trial after being convicted of aggravated assault while she shot a warning shot against her abusive husband.
