Daniel Triplett poses a risk to the community, a Logan County prosecutor claimed
{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}An Oklahoma contractor accused of shooting an employee dead and then burying him under a septic tank could have his bond revoked as he awaits trial, in part because of an unauthorized visit to a Waffle House restaurant, according to a report.
In all, defendant Daniel Triplett is accused of three bond violations, Logan County District Attorney Laura Thomas claimed in a motion filed Thursday, FOX 25 of Oklahoma City reported.

In addition to the alleged Waffle House visit on Dec. 15, Triplett’s other alleged bond violations include a visit to a convenience store in Guthrie, Oklahoma, and a stop at an Oklahoma State Bank branch, both on Jan. 4, the report said.
After the bank visit, a bank employee contacted Guthrie police, knowing the trip was a violation of Triplett’s bond conditions, Thomas claimed in her filing.
Triplett was released in December on $500,000 bond, according to the station. He was granted permission to leave home only for meetings with his attorney, doctor appointments or future court sessions, the report said.
