James McCoy Taylor, a onetime contestant on "The Bachelorette," was taken into custody again in Texas over a 2024 assault case.
The 39-year-old musician was re-booked on Friday, March 20, according to Brazos County Sheriff's Office records reviewed by USA TODAY on March 22. The original arrest stemmed from two criminal charges of assault and unlawful restraint.
Taylor, who appeared in 2016 on Season 12 of "The Bachelorette," which starred Joelle Fletcher, was released from custody the same day after posting a $10,000 surety bond.
He was rebooked after a warrant was filed alleging he had violated the terms of his probation, the Brazos County Attorney's Office told USA TODAY on Monday, March 23. A hearing will be held to allow Taylor's attorneys to plead their case before a possible sentencing for his 2024 charges.
USA TODAY has reached out to Taylor, the sheriff's office and Brazos County District Clerk for more information. TMZ was first to report the news.
