Bail hearing for Haidl postponed

An Orange County Superior Court judge on Tuesday put off the bail

hearing for the 19-year-old son of an Orange County assistant sheriff

facing a new statutory rape charge. Judge Francisco Briseno said he

would decide during the week of Aug. 9 whether or not to revoke Greg

Haidl’s bail. Greg Haidl, son of Orange County Assistant Sheriff Don

Haidl, Kyle Nachreiner and Keith Spann, both 19, are accused of

raping an unconscious 16-year-old girl in the assistant sheriff’s

Corona del Mar home.

Jurors hopelessly deadlocked during the first trial, forcing

Briseno to declare a mistrial.

The district attorney is expected to file new charges on Aug. 6

and decide whether prosecutors will try each of the defendants

separately this time.

Greg Haidl was arrested on a misdemeanor statutory rape charge on

July 15. Prosecutors say he had sex with a 16-year-old girl he met

during a party his father threw in his Spyglass Hill home the night

of the mistrial.

Greg Haidl is scheduled to be arraigned on the misdemeanor charge

on Aug. 12 at Harbor Justice Center in Laguna Niguel.
