Suspect charged in fatal hit-and-run, bond set at $200,000
Shania O’Brien was charged with felony negligent homicide in connection with the hit-and-run death of 23-year-old Austin Nieves.
She is accused of hitting Austin and his 21-year-old brother Conor while driving westbound on West Granite Street on the campus of Montana Tech and driving away from the scene.
Her bond was set at $200,000, but her attorney Palmer Hoovestal requested a reduced bond of $100,000. The state objected.
“We would further ask that the court impose conditions should she bond out with GPS monitoring with pre-trial services and daily testing at level 3, and at this time I believe that the $200,000 is commiserate to the offense,” said Butte Deputy County Attorney Ann Shea.
Justice of the Peace Ben Pezdark continued the bond and remanded her to jail.
