The defender requested that Bruce be granted supervised release due to medical concerns. Bruce apparently has had four back surgeries and uses a wheelchair.
The judge said she would not grant immediate release, but will review the claim and hold a bail hearing on Friday. Paddock was reportedly displeased and shook his head in response to the decision.
Bruce was taken into custody at an assisted living home in North Hollywood, California, after police were tipped off about his crimes and whereabouts. He had reportedly set up booby traps and surveillance on his property to thwart authorities.
