EPHRATA — A former Warden substitute teacher who is accused of voyeurism was freed on bail last week after his bail amount reduced from $200,000 to $85,000.

Michael Leavitt, 53, of Warden, is currently facing two counts of voyeurism in Grant County Superior Court following a March 29 arrest in Warden. Leavitt’s defense attorney, Robert Schiffner, requested the bail be lowered to $85,000 from $200,000 during a hearing last week. The Grant County Prosecutor’s Office was in opposition to a bail reduction, but the request was ultimately granted by Judge John Antosz. For the full story see Tuesday’s Columbia Basin Herald.
