Springfield man with 3 drunk driving convictions facing 4th charge - MassLive.com
SPRINGFIELD – When a police officer asked for his license, David S. Bailey handed over his ATM card instead. "He told me not to (expletive) with him," Springfield patrolman James Donovan wrote in his arrest report. During his arraignment in Springfield District Court , the 54-year-old Springfield man pleaded innocent and was ordered held on bail at the Hampden County House of Correction. During a pretrial conference Wednesday, Judge Robert Gordon continued the case to June 29 and transferred Bailey to the Hampshire County House of Correction at the request of defense lawyer Dennis Powers. A prosecutor said Bailey will likely be indicted by a grand jury in a few weeks, causing the case to be transferred to Superior Court. In court records, Bailey is described as a Springfield native, unemployed and receiving Social Security disability payments. His latest arrest came after a St. James Avenue resident called police about 7:30 p. m. on April 17 to report that a black Nissan Maxima had been parked outside her house for nearly an hour, with music blasting from its radio. When police arrived, Bailey seemed surprised, according to the arrest report. Source: www.masslive.com
