Petition Grows Over Winslow Bond Surprise
Residents of Winslow Arizona circulate petitions opposing the release without bond of Robert Jenkins and John McDaniels two men arrested near the Winslow Airport while allegedly loading 430 pounds of marijuana. They faced $75 000 cash bonds and were moved to Phoenix for a bond hearing and a preliminary federal hearing.
