According to jail records, Sean Butler-Smith has a bench warrant issued yesterday for california pc 664/211 which is attempted robbery. I hope there is more to the story and I will try and find out more.
He made a sincere effort to change his life around. It would be unfortunate if this step would set him back further in his effort to change his life around.
Bench warrant could simply mean he did not show up for an old case. Which was one of his old cases. There should be a separate report titled Bench Warrants, booked is misleading.
Not showing up for court happens frequently for many different reasons. One of which is not having your court date listed accurately in the computer or court calendars. Attorneys and public defenders usually ask for a hold on the warrant so they can check with the client.
Updated: Just spoke with a family member. He did indeed not show up for court which is a violation of probation, this is not a new charge.
