LOS ANGELES - A US judge on Tuesday ordered Meghan Markle's estranged father to be detained in jail until he faces charges for alleged possession of child sexual abuse material.
US Attorney Bill Essayli said in a post on X Tuesday that he had requested Thomas Markle be detained because the court ordered him to wear a monitoring device but "he allegedly cut the bracelet off at 1.45am, last night."
US Magistrate Judge Lindsay Griffin later ordered Thomas Markle "detained pending the resolution of this case" on Tuesday, writing "the defendant violated the conditions of his pretrial release." - AFP
