Cylenthia LaToye Miller
Cylenthia LaToye Miller of Flat Rock was present by video July 15 for her adjourned arraignment/pretrial before Judge Lisa Martin at 34th District Court. Miller, who is a Wayne County Circuit Court Judge, is charged with a check-point violation at Detroit Metro Airport on June 8. Her original arraignment/pretrial was set for July 1 and adjourned until July 15.
Transportation Safety Agents reported she carried a loaded firearm through the airport and they alerted airport police who brought the charge. She was on her way to catch a flight on June 8 and the TSA found a loaded .380 caliber Smith and Wesson firearm in her purse through the x-ray scanner.
Defense attorney Todd Perkins said his client pleads not-guilty to the charge and he asked for personal recognizance bond and an adjournment of the case because there is a tangentially related matter and he would like closure on a global scale. He also asked that his client be permitted to travel because she has a pre-existing date in September.
Judge Martin set the personal bond at $5,000, adjourned the pretrial until Aug. 1, and said she may travel on a pre-planned trip.
