A La Feria business woman known as the 'Park Girl' has been released from jail shortly after getting a reduced bond.

Authorities had arrested Jo Leigh Ares on multiple criminal charges last week.

The Park Girl mobile home sales owner was originally given a $1.2 million dollar bond after a judge labeled her a flight risk.

Another judge lowered the bond to $50,000 dollars for each count.

Ares posted the $200,000 dollars in bonds and got released from the Cameron County Jail.

Action 4 News went to Ares' Palm Valley home where a woman moving in said the 'Park Girl' no longer lived there.

What do you think?
Do you agree with the judge's decision to reduce bond for Jo Leigh Ares?
