24-year-old Jacey Grom made her first appearance Tuesday in Buchanan County court in connection with the death of Corbin Watts.
Grom was charged Friday in Buchanan County with a felony for first-degree involuntary manslaughter. Court documents accuse Grom of driving while under the influence of alcohol causing the death of Watts by striking him with a vehicle driving in excess of the speed limit on I-229 earlier this month.
Online court documents said Tuesday, during an arraignment the court overruled Grom’s oral motion to set bail. She remains behind bars without bond.
A Preliminary hearing has been set for May 3.
