After nine days of being released for transfer from a Southern California jail, narco corrido singer Larry Hernandez arrives in Newberry, South Carolina to face kidnapping charges.
This morning Borderland Beat was told that that singer had arrived at 6:36 a.m. and was scheduled to face a judge at a bail hearing on Saturday, but less than 3 hours later the suspect faced the judge when the hearing was moved up to 11 a.m.
The judge imposed a set bail in the amount of $200,000.
Under the conditions of bail, Hernandez was allowed to return to his Southern California home in West Covina, but must report to the court every two weeks and submit to random drug testing.
“Larry Hernandez was also ordered to surrender his passport and forbidden to have any contact with the victim or any other co-defendants,” said Police Chief Roy McClurkin
Hernandez’s charges stems from an Aug. 17 event where the victim alleges he was held against his will by individuals associated with a concert at a Newberry skating rink.
The victim reported to the police that he was wrapped in clear plastic wrap and beaten by Hernandez and another man.
His next court hearing is on December 31, 2015.
