TOLEDO, Ohio — A Lucas County Common Pleas Court judge has set bond at $150,000 for the woman charged in a Lake Erie boating incident last month that left a young girl and an adult man dead.
Judge Gary Cook set the bond for Kristen Gerrie, 41, at her arraignment on Wednesday, where she appeared on felony charges of involuntary manslaughter and endangering children. She is ordered to electronic GPS monitoring if she posts bond.

Gerrie was indicted on the charges last month in connection with the July 2 boat trip she went on with Jonathan Ciha, 38, and Angelique Cunningham, 11.
Ciha’s body was discovered in the water at Meinke Marina in Jerusalem Township the morning after, while Gerrie had managed to make it to shore. Cunningham’s body was pulled from the water near Meinke Marina a few days later after a search involving area first responders and the U.S. Coast Guard.
According to her indictment, the involuntary manslaughter charge was filed because Gerrie allegedly committed or attempted to commit felony child endangerment.
Cook scheduled Gerrie’s next court appearance for Sept. 9.
