A former Hall County jailer was released on a bond “of his own recognizance,” stemming from charges of felony sexual assault. According to the District Attorney’s office, that means Marcell Allen did not have to post money for his release. Sheriff’s office spokesman Sgt. Stephen Wilbanks said information on why Allen was given that type of bond was not immediately available.
