Judge James Goodwin will hear Megan Boswell’s attorney’s request to reduce her bond
Sullivan County Judge James Goodwin has set May 28, 2020, as the date when he will hear Megan Boswell’s court appointed attorney’s, Brad Sproles, argument as to why her $150,000 bond should be lowered to something that she can afford.
Judge Goodwin is the same judge who increased Megan Boswell’s bond from $25,000 to $150,000 after the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation (TBI) told the judge they found the body of a toddler who was wearing the same clothes that Megan Boswell said that 15-month-old Evelyn Boswell was wearing when she last saw her during the month of December 2019.
But let Sproles tell it, his client has spent too much time in jail on a charge of lying. Sure, the police found 15-month-old Evelyn Boswell dead and buried in Megan Boswell’s daddy’s backyard. But to Sproles, that isn’t evidence that his client did it. All it means is that they found a body they were looking for. They just so happen to find a dead body of a toddler, who so happened to be around the same age as Evelyn Boswell, in the backyard of Megan Boswell’s daddy.
“She is thinking rationally about her situation and the case, and contributes and helps in her defense. At the end of the day, we have a mother who lost her child. That’s a tragedy any way you look at it,” is what the WJHL folks quoted Sproles as saying. The only problem is that Megan Boswell is a mother who waited almost two months to tell the police that she is “a mother who lost her child.”
That there, in and of itself, will make folks stop and say, “Hmm.” Sproles, though, ain’t paying any never mind to the fact that his client waited almost two months to tell everybody that her toddler daughter was missing.
As far as Sproles is concern, the state needs to either put up or shut up, charge his client or don’t. The state, of course, has let him know that sometime between May 20, 2020, and June 19, 2020, they have a surprise for him and his client.

And that surprise will be none other than Megan Boswell being charged in the death of her 15-month-old daughter Evelyn Boswell.
