Prosecutors Seek to Revoke Bond for Traverse City Walmart Stabbing Suspect

Multiple victims have been released from hospital ahead of scheduled court hearings following the July 26 attack

Overview

  • Prosecutors have filed a motion to revoke 42-year-old Bradford James Gille’s $100,000 bond, citing concerning behavior and the threat he poses if released.
  • Gille is due back in court on August 6 for a probable cause hearing and on August 12 for a preliminary hearing on terrorism and attempted murder charges.
  • Munson Healthcare reports that three victims have been discharged, two remain in other facilities, and the rest are in good or fair condition.
  • Former Marines Derrick Perry and Matthew Kolakowski joined other shoppers to subdue Gille—using firearms and a shopping cart—to prevent further harm.
  • Investigators continue to examine Gille’s motives and his decades-long history of schizophrenia and substance use, highlighting systemic failures in enforcing court-ordered mental health evaluations.
