A judge has reinstated bail, with the condition of having a GPS monitoring bracelet, for Owen Labrie, a New Hampshire prep school graduate convicted of sexually assaulting a 15-year-old freshman as part of a game of sexual conquest.
Labrie had been free while he appealed his conviction, but a judge revoked his bail in March after he admitted violating his curfew. He appealed that decision to the state Supreme Court, which on Thursday sent the matter back to the trial court. A hearing was held Monday afternoon in Merrimack County Superior Court.
Labrie, of Tunbridge, Vermont, was arrested in 2014 — days after graduating from St. Paul’s School in Concord. During his trial, Labrie testified that he and the girl had consensual sexual contact but he denied having intercourse with her.
