Court Commissioner Daniel E. Kellum on Tuesday set $3,000 cash bail. Carlson is charged with felony intimidation of a victim with an elder-person penalty enhancer and domestic abuse modifier and misdemeanor disorderly conduct with an elder-person penalty enhancer and domestic abuse modifier. If convicted on all counts and the enhancers apply, he faces up to 16 years in prison and $26,000 in fines.

  7. Sean, you have so much to learn. Still a child in a man’s body. Hope some day you come to appreciate family; I’d give anything to have a visit with my grandparents again. Sadly, you are a fool, a spoiled tempered, witless fool. But there is still time to turn your act around. Get to it.
