MURRAY – The Murray man now known across the nation “Cowboy Cody” was back in Calloway District Court this morning. Jonathan “Cody” Mason, who was arraigned last week on charges stemming from his alleged release of a raccoon in a local bar, appeared for his preliminary hearing in that case.
As he suggested during last week’s arraignment, Calloway District Judge Randall Hutchens agreed to amend Mason’s bond from $5,000 cash to 10% ($500) partially secured, which was posted after the hearing; however, among other conditions of his release, Mason will remain on house arrest until he can begin inpatient substance abuse treatment.
