I'm happy they rescinded bail even if he couldn't have paid it.

A man accused of murdering his girlfriend's infant son was sentenced to 30 years for injury to a child.
Franklin Ramey Jr. was given 30 years in prison as a part of a deal to plead guilty to a lesser injury to a child charge.
According to his attorney, it means Ramey admitted responsibility for 2-year-old Hayden Vicker's death, although not intentionally.
In November Ramey stood trial for the murder of Vickers, but that trial resulted in a hung jury.
Abilene Police responded to a call of injury to a child in February at the home in the 2400 block of South 3rd.
There they found 2-year-old Hayden Vickers with head trauma.
Vickers died a short time later, and Ramey, the live-in boyfriend of Hayden's mother, was charged with the boy's murder.
The investigation found Ramey was the only person in the home when 2-year-old Hayden was injured.
