EL CAJON, Calif. -- A San Diego County Superior Court judge on Friday rejected a request to raise star
Memphis basketball recruit
Mikey Williams' bail for what the prosecution said was a threatening social media post, and granted a speedy trial for the 19-year-old on
nine felony charges stemming from a March 17 shooting incident in which no one was injured.
Judge Kathleen M. Lewis denied Deputy District Attorney George Modlin's request to raise Williams' bail to $500,000. The player has been free on a $50,000 bond since his arrest April 13.
Lewis set trial for Dec. 14 on six counts of assault with a weapon, one count of firing into an occupied vehicle and two counts of making threats that could result in great bodily injury or death. Williams faces up to 30 years in prison if convicted.
