Irish nanny Aisling McCarthy Brady to remain in prison as she fails to raise $500,000 bail

Significant evidence? What evidence is that michael? She has had some altercations in the past, it does not mean she hurt/killed this child, that is just a ridiculous assumption and that's what gets people injustly accused. She is not a flight risk with no passport.

The judge is 100% correct. There is significant evidence against the nanny, she has a violent past and she is certainly a flight risk.

I totally agree with you hurley1. Asking for $500,000 bail for this is ridiculous. How can she possibly come up with that? At the very least she should be released and monitored, she's going nowhere if she has no passport. Prosecution jumping the gun as usual, and they likely won't back down either, they can't possibly look like fools by accusing someone in the wrong. The whole thing is absurd.

Aisling is being held on circumstantial evidence; older injuries in the baby may have been caused when the parents and the baby were on foreign travels. Should not the parents be imprisoned on this circumstantial evidence of injuries, perhaps caused when not under the care of Aisling. At the very least Aisling should have her bail reduced and let out pending trial.
