Bradford Woman Waives Hearing
A Bradford woman waived her preliminary hearing on charges of making false reports to law enforcement and driving with a suspended license.
According to papers filed in District Judge Dom Cercone's office, on January 26 when police arrived at the scene of a non-reportable accident on East Washington Street one of the drivers was agitated. They say Jacquie Horton told them she was upset because she was pregnant and on her way to the hospital, which is also why she didn't have her driver's license with her. Instead of giving her name, however, she allegedly gave police the name and birth date of her older sister. After her younger sister called the older sister to tell her about the incident the older sister, who lives out of town, called police to tell them she wasn't involved in the accident.
Horton later contacted police and "literally confessed several times" and said she gave the wrong name "because she was scared about going to jail," according to court papers.
She's free on her own recognizance.
