From Washburn Hall, the alleged victim was transported to Valley Medical Center where she was given exams. The alleged victim ended her testimony with information regarding her examination at the hospital. Testimony from a criminologist followed and then the court took a short recess before reviewing the motion to increase bail. Jay Boyarsky, a deputy district attorney for Santa Clara County, gave various reasons as to why Norman's bail should be increased. Boyarsky said Norman was facing serious charges, perhaps approaching the severity of murder.
Striker is in relation to the three strikes law.
Boyarsky also challenged a letter from Michael Donovan, a chief of police in Lebanon, Ill. in which it asked for a lesser bond for Norman. I feel that this young man should be given consideration for leniency on any charges that are made against him. He comes from a caring family and at his young age and being so far away from home, he is probably out of his element. I've known him and his family for the last six years and have never had any problems with Les. I do appreciate anything you could do for him.
