Arsonist Tonya Bundick Back In court For Motions Hearing

Tonya Bundick will be back in court on Thursday April 10 for a motions hearing to entertain a motion to move her trial to another location, her request for 62 separate trials for all 62 additional charges she is facing and her request to be allowed to wear makeup in court.

Bundick's trial had originally been scheduled for April 10, but was postponed and a trial date has not been set. Bundick entered an Alford plea on one count of arson and one count of conspiracy to commit arson after she and her accomplice Charles R. Smith were apprehended after a fire was set in Melfa on April 1, 2013. She awaits sentencing on those charges.

Bundick was indicted for the other 62 counts by a grand jury. Smith has admitted his involvement in 62 of the 77 arson fires that occurred in Accomack County between November 2012 and April 1 2013.
