11 convicts granted parole

A woman convicted for fatally striking a bicyclist with a pick-up truck while she was intoxicated and 10 other convicts were granted parole by the Board of Parole.

Micheline West Brel’s parole application was among those granted by the BOP during the proceedings last Wednesday and Thursday, according to acting Chief Parole Officer Joseph T. Guerrero.

Guerrero said Brel was convicted for homicide by vehicle and for driving while under the influence of alcohol.

In December 2004, Superior Court Associate Judge David A. Wiseman imposed a three-year jail term on Brel.

Police investigation showed that Brel was the operator of a 1994 Nissan pick-up truck that killed a 38-year-old man, who was riding his bicycle along 16th Highway in Chalan Kiya on midnight of April 30, 2004.

Guerrero said the other convicts granted parole were MaryAnn DLC. Indalecio, Rex R. Jose, Milton B. Cruz, Marvin DLG. Concepcion, Ignacio M. Leon Guerrero, Vincent J. Castro, Nupom Nupom, Juan J. Castro, Seremea Nowell, and Thomas A. Aldan.

Denied of their parole were Jamie J. Quindo Jr., also known as Edgar Mendoza; Anthony Rios; Yen Mei Ying; Nestor C. Taitano; and Ronald R Kaipat.

The parole application of Dwayne M. Sibetang, a mentally ill man who was sentenced to 15 years for murder, was not acted upon by the board. The board noted that they need more information about the applicant.

The BOP said Indalecio was convicted of numerous theft by deception and issuance of bad checks. She was sentenced to two years in jail.
