Cassandra Davis appeared in Justice Court on Thursday, February 25, for a status hearing. According to a Court Services report, Davis admitted to using methamphetamines on Wednesday, and tested positive prior to appearing for court on Thursday. Assistant District Attorney (ADA) Chelsea Sanford requested that Davis be returned to custody for failing to comply with the terms of her supervision after being released on her own recognizance (OR).
Wright Noel, public defense counsel for Davis, noted that Davis was making an effort to comply by appearing for court when most defendants fail to appear following a positive drug test. Noel argued for another OR release. However, Judge Trotter denied the request and reinstated bail for Davis. She was remanded to the custody the Churchill County Jail until she can provide a clean drug test.
Davis was arrested on February 1 in Hazen after allegedly driving under the influence of illicit narcotics and refusing to pull over on the signal of law enforcement. Davis also had several children in the car at the time of the arrest and reported hallucinating before driving. She has been charged with (1) Child Abuse, Neglect, or Endangerment, (2) DUI, (3) Resist, Delay or Obstruct a Public Officer, and three traffic-related violations
