Alleged Child Killer Angela Mejia Appears in Court for First Time Since Arrest

For the first time since her arrest, alleged child killer Angela Mejia was caught on camera as she made a brief court appearance this morning.

The accused, charged with the murder of 9-year-old Chantel Crump, was heavily guarded and wore a bulletproof vest as she was remanded for another week.

This procedure follows Section 239 of the Magistrate’s Code of Procedure Act, which states that a prisoner should not be remanded for more than eight clear days at a time.

But prisoners won’t have to be physically brought to court much longer.

Virtual remands are set to begin soon following an amendment to the law that was gazetted last Monday.
