The defense indicates [Linton] has been subject to involuntary commitments on several occasions and has hurt herself more than once.” Citing Nicole's mental health problems, her irresponsible driving during the incident, and her connections to individuals outside the state and the country, Vannoy said she should be detained without bail until her trial. Vannoy said: “The defendant’s extremely reckless conduct combined with her mental health struggles that have escalated to the point of taking the lives of six individuals and harming seven more clearly comport with the exceptions for detention without bail under the California Constitution." Reportedly, a hearing was scheduled to discuss her bail on Monday. However, it got delayed until the end of August at her attorneys' request.
