Serving Whitman County since 1877
Sheridan McGill, 20, the Pullman resident who was placed on 24-hour house arrest in the custody of her grandmother March 22, was returned to jail April 23 after being treated at Pullman Regional Hospital for injuries.
At a hearing Friday morning in court, Judge Gary Libey read an email from McGill's grandmother who informed the court she could not keep control of her granddaughter as promised in court five weeks ago. The grandmother's report said McGill jumped out of a moving car during an argument with her grandmother and sustained injuries.
McGill appeared in court Friday morning with one of her arms in a sling. She received permission from the court to undergo a three-week behavioral treatment session in Coeur d'Alene, Idaho, before proceeding with more court hearings on the three charges she now faces.
Her aunt appeared before the court and said she would transport McGill to the treatment center and bring her back. Treatment at the center is voluntary, but Judge Libey ordered McGill to remain in the treatment center and return to custody of the jail here to continue with resolution of the three charges against her.
McGill has been scheduled for trial on the three matters June 17.
The last charge filed against her was burglarizing a Main Street apartment in Colfax. The police report on the case alleges McGill forced her way into the apartment because of a dispute with the occupant.
McGill also faces charges of theft and burglary at Pullman Building Supply last July and drug charges filed Jan. 29.
