Shefelbine Charge Changed:
David Shefelbine, father of alleged serial predator Scott Shefelbine, had his charges increased for assaulting a Connecticut news reporter.
During his brief arraignment Tuesday in the same court in Rockville, David Shefelbine said nothing as Assistant State’s Attorney Elizabeth C. Leaming increased the charge he faces to third-degree assault. Lori Beth Leavitt, Shefelbine’s attorney, entered a routine not guilty plea and a request for a jury trial.
Shefelbine the elder is accused of punching reporter Erin Cox after she asked him to comment on his son’s bail being revoked.
Maybe father and son will have adjoining cells.
