Roy Roach of St. Ignace was released from Mackinac County Jail on a tether bond Wednesday, November 5, after Judge Beth Gibson reduced his bond from $1 million to $100,000 real property. Mr. Roach, 21, is being charged on three counts in the shooting death of Seth Tamlyn of St. Ignace October 28.

His preliminary examination has been rescheduled from November 5 to Wednesday, November 26. The hearing will begin at 1:30 p.m. at 92nd District Court in St. Ignace.

As agreed by both the county prosecutor and Mr. Roach's attorney, he will be bound by an ankle tether, which allows him to remain at home, but he is not allowed to have alcohol, drugs, dangerous weapons, or firearms on the premises.
