Attempted murder suspect hires Ken Bareilles and gets remanded into custody; should have kept his public defender

Attempted murder and DUI suspect Vincent Edward Nelson was remanded in court yesterday.

Humboldt Superior Court Judge Lawrence Killoran granted Senior Deputy District Roger Rees' request for remand yesterday. Ken Bareilles made a general appearance and the Public Defender was relieved. Amended bail was stricken yesterday.

Hiring Ken Bareilles didn't work well for Nelson, did it?

OR bail is tomorrow. Trial setting on 6/2.
