Glasby extradited to Umatilla County

WALLA WALLA—Skylar I. Glasby, 32, was extradited from Walla Walla County Jail back to Umatilla County Jail, where he awaits a retrial from an incident in 2016.

Glasby was convicted on charges of kidnapping, robbery and assault of a Milton-Freewater man in 2016. He successfully appealed the conviction on grounds that he was denied permission to either get new counsel or act as his own legal counsel during the trial. He was released pending a new trial scheduled for January 2021. Glasby faces felony charges of first-degree kidnapping, first-degree robbery, and second-degree assault for this incident.

On August 13, while awaiting the retrial, Glasby was arrested in Waitsburg for alleged unlawful imprisonment and domestic violence acts. Glasby faces second-degree assault, unlawful imprisonment, and fourth-degree assault charges. A trial is scheduled for later this year. Glasby was released on $25,000 bail the following week.

Friday, September 4, Glasby was arrested, this time for driving with a suspended license and possession of drug paraphernalia, violating terms of his most release on the recent Walla Walla County arrest.

The Walla Walla Prosecuting Attorney Jim Nagle anticipates being able to proceed as planned and obtain Glasby’s presence when needed.

Umatilla County has set Glasby’s current bail at $300,000.
