Chandler attended a hearing at the Juvenile and Family Relations (JDR) court in Greene County on Thursday.
During the hearing, Chen told Presiding Judge David M. Barredo that she was anxious to pack up her personal belongings and that she “would be willing to do anything if she could,” reported Daily Progress.
The news outlet claims that, on the recommendation of Greene County Magistrate Judge Kenneth Andrew Snethion, Barredo refused bail, citing the nature of the alleged crime and the potential threat Chandler posed to her and her community.
In addition, he ordered that she not be released on bail until a preliminary court hearing on September 16.
