Muniz's arrest has generated widespread anger with hundreds expressing their disgust for the suspect online.

Eric Lindell, the Seattle criminal lawyer defending for Taylor, had asked for a $10,000 bail saying that his client has not been taking his medicines for Asperger's Syndrome. This was countered by the prosecution, who sought a $1 million bail. Lindell was jailed when he posted several threatening messages on Seattle Mayor Ed Murray's Facebook page. He also posted a threat which authorities believed targeted Kshama Sawant, the first socialist to have become a member of the City Council. Philadelphia Church official granted bail after his conviction was reversedPosted Dec 30, 2013 on abclocal.go.com After 18 months in prison, Monsignor William Lynn, may be released when he was granted bail following the reversal of his conviction. Lynn, who served as a secretary for clergy at the Philadelphia archdiocese, will have to give up his passport. He will also be made to wear an electronic device for monitoring. The Roman Catholic official was sentenced to between three to six years after he was convicted for endangering an abuse victim of a priest. However, appeal judges reversed Lynn's conviction because the child-endangerment law which he was accused of violating did not apply to him. Following the reversal, Lynn's defense lawyers asked for his release which the prosecution opposed during the bail hearing claiming that the priest is a flight risk. However, Philadelphia defense attorney Thomas Bergstrom said that Lynn would never run away from conviction. Former prosecutor sentenced to 10 days for wrongful convictionPosted Nov 14, 2013 on www.statesman.com Ken Anderson, the former District Attorney of Williamson County, was meted with a 10-day jail term after the judge accepted his no-contest plea for the charge of contempt of court. The charge steamed from the wrongful conviction of Michael Morton who was found guilty for the murder of his wife in 1986 and was sentenced to life imprisonment. However, in 2011, Morton's conviction was overturned using DNA as proof that he did not kill his wife. In the light of that development, Anderson, who had prosecuted Morton's case, was scrutinized and was determined to have erred when he withheld evidence which would have been beneficial for Morton's defense. Aside from the short jail stay, Anderson will also have to give up his license as a lawyer and as part of the plea bargain, he will also be disbarred for five years. Austin attorney Eric Nichols, however, pointed out that there will be no conviction for Anderson on any criminal charge. Morton, for his part, said he is more than happy with the result because all he wanted was for Anderson not to practice law anymore to prevent what happened to him from happening to anyone else again. Anderson was also fined and made to do community service.
