The opinion

JOINER, Judge,

concurring specially.

I concur in the main opinion. In its response to Rodney Wayne Patterson’s petition, the State asserts that Patterson has continued to harass the victim of the alleged murder attempt. I write specially to note that I do not read our decision as precluding the circuit court from adding, as a condition to the reinstatement of the bail, the requirement that Patterson avoid contact with the victim. Moreover, if such a condition already exists, I do not read our decision as invalidating that condition or as precluding the State from seeking to have Patterson’s bail revoked for violating that condition.
