A 19-year-old Topeka man arrested Thursday in connection with the disappearance of his 3-week-old son would have to post a $200,000 bond to be released from Shawnee County Jail, a Shawnee County District judge said Friday during the defendant's first appearance hearing.
The defendant, Edward Jason Alberty, of 3542 S.W. Kerry, was booked into jail in connection with aggravated assault, endangering a child, interfering with parental custody and two counts of domestic battery, according to court records.
