Bentons arraigned

According to the Ledger Independent, Timothy Benton, 25, and Tyler Benton, Shayla Benton and Amber Benton, all 21, appeared in circuit court on charges of first-degree wanton endangerment. Amber and Tyler Benton were also arraigned for second-degree wanton endangerment and Timothy Benton was arraigned for resisting arrest.
Assistant Commonwealth's Attorney Gary Adkins said Amber Benton has retained private counsel and is being represented by Debra Rigg. The remaining three Bentons were being represented by public defender Robert Clark. However, Adkins said they decided to sign a waiver of multiple representation and are seeking separate counsel. The judge continued their case until Oct. 2 so the public defender's office can assign attorneys to each of the Bentons. Adkins said it was unlikely Clark would represent any of them since he may have confidential information for one that would not apply to another.

Each of the Bentons are free on a bond of 10 percent of $5,000.
