An appeals court has denied bail in the case of a psychiatrist who has been in jail for almost a year while she awaits trial for charges that she orchestrated a botched murder plot for her child’s father.

In 2015, a Family Court found that Pamela Buchbinder “masterminded a plot to kill” fellow psychiatrist Michael Weiss, with whom she had a child, in 2012, granting sole custody of the child to Weiss and issuing a five-year order of protection against Buchbinder.
