The stepfather of a girl who was taken out of the United States a decade ago amid a custody dispute has posted $250,000 cash bail less than week after his arraignment in New Hampshire.
Scott Kelley fled with his wife, Genevieve Kelley, and her then-8-year-old daughter in 2004.
The Kelleys were arraigned May 7 in Coos County on custodial interference and witness tampering charges. They pleaded not guilty.
The 50-year-old Scott Kelley was arrested last month in Atlanta after he and the daughter, 19-year-old Mary Nunes, arrived on a flight from Costa Rica. The Caledonian Record reports he posted bail Wednesday.
Genevieve Kelley turned herself in to authorities in November. She posted $250,000 bail in January.
Both cases could be consolidated into one trial that could start in September.
