After it was initially set at $4 million, a third attempt to reduce Sarah Hartsfield’s bond was successful. She is accused of ki!!ing her husband.

However, according to her attorney, even with the decrease to $2 million, the amount is probably still too much for the m*rder suspect to be set free.

Joseph Hartsfield, Sarah Hartsfield’s husband of less than a year, passed away in January in a Baytown hospital after telling his family he was leaving her, according to his family.

Details from her history, such as the ki!!ing of a fiancé in self-defense that is currently being looked at anew and an alleged m*rder plot involving her third ex-husband’s new wife, have emerged after a grand jury indicted her in his slaying.

The mother of four made a brief appearance in court on Friday, October 6. The judge increased her bond from the $250,000 that her counsel had asked for to $2 million.

“I can’t find any other case where they’re sitting at seven figures on a murder case. I would not say she’s happy with that, but she has a positive mental attitude,” said James Reeves, attorney for Sarah Hartsfield.

The reduced sum, according to defense counsel James Reeves, is nonetheless excessive.

“She does not have $2 million of assets to provide as collateral as most bondsmen will require,” said Reeves.

In addition to saying Hartsfield is dangerous and doesn’t have strong ties to the county, the prosecution claimed that Hartsfield can’t maintain her tale and is engaging in game-playing that is delaying her own trial.

Reeves claims that no charges have been brought against her.

“I don’t think it’s fair in the court of public opinion when you don’t know anything. We’re talking about a case that’s not a straightforward type of homicide case that we’re normally accustomed to,” said Reeves.

Before there is any public development on this matter, it may be months. May 2024, more than a year after Hartsfield’s arrest, is the tentative date for the trial.
