The Wicomico County State’s Attorney’s office will not have a prosecutor present for all bond review hearings after the recent release of Jocori Scarborough who is facing charges in connection with the Parkside High School rape case involving a 15 year old fellow female student.

In addition, the court will provide information about the dates and details of the defendant’s cases.

Initially Scarborough was released on $100-thousand bond but the judge revoked his bail after discovering that he was also facing a charge of weapons possession by a minor.

State’s Attorney Matt Maciarello said if he had been the prosecutor he would asked that Scarborough not be released on bond but declined to speculate on what the judge would have decided.
