Prosecutors want to reverse the bond for a teenage girl accused of killing her father after her mother allegedly used money from the dead man’s life insurance to pay the bond.

The girl, whose name is omitted as she’s a minor, allegedly picked up a 9mm handgun on Feb. 23, loaded it, and shot her 71-year-old father, James Ponder, in the head as he laid in bed.
