Kingston was seen wearing a gray-colored jumpsuit in the online courtroom.
The judge outlined the charges Kingston faced and stated that the allegations and charges date back to conduct involving an alleged victim on February 23, 2025.
The position on bail from the alleged victim and the county attorney’s office was a cash-for-bond bail with certain conditions.
Bail was offered to Kingston with conditions
The cash-for-bond bail was $100,000, which can be satisfied with $10,000 in cash.
Among the conditions set for Kingston’s bail are no contact with the alleged victim and no contact with any third party or potential witnesses. A GPS ankle monitor was also agreed upon to ensure no appearances in Washington County, unless appearing in court.
Also, no social media usage while the case is pending. Kingston doesn’t have to delete his profiles or content, but he’s not allowed to have social media apps on his phone, the judge stated.
Kingston’s next court appearance is on February 25 at 10:30 a.m., and he can appear virtually via WebEx.
