Scott Hayes, accused of shooting a man during a pro-Israel rally, has had his GPS monitor removed by a judge, marking an easing of restrictions as he awaits trial.
Hayes, pleading not guilty to charges stemming from the incident at the rally, argued through his lawyer that the curfew and GPS monitor were 'unwarranted' and caused unnecessary alerts.
Attending the rally as a pro-Israel demonstrator, Scott Hayes was allegedly tackled by Caleb Gannon, leading to the shooting, while Gannon may also face charges for his actions.
The court found Hayes's GPS monitoring restrictive three weeks post-incident, noting an evolving situation with decreased community tension and the potential for over-reaction with curfew enforcement.
