A Ramsey man made an appearance in Fayette County Court this week on multiple battery counts. 27 year old Derek S. Trumbold appeared in Fayette County Court along with his attorney, William Starnes, for a court appearance. During the appearance, Trumbold waived formal arraignment, entered a plea of not guilty and demanded a trial by jury. Trumbold was charged in June with Aggravated Domestic Battery, Aggravated Battery of a Victim over 60 and Aggravated Battery with a deadly weapon for allegedly striking an elderly family member in the head several times with a golf club. And, in doing so, is alleged to have caused lacerations that required emergency medical care. The first count is a Class 2 Felony punishable by 3 to 7 years in prison. The other two counts are Class 3 Felonies, which are punishable by 2 to 5 years in prison. Trumbold remains in the Fayette County Jail in lieu of $50,000 bond. His next appearance will be a pre-trial appearance on August 30th at 10 am.
