Manglona ordered the 36-year-old Aguon to come to court on Sept. 19 at 3pm for revocation hearing of his supervised release.<\/p>\n<p>Manglona issued the summons after the U.S. Probation Office requested the court to hold a hearing directing Aguon to explain why his supervised release should not be revoked.<\/p>\n<p>In October 2012, Manglona sentenced Aguon to a 24-month prison term, followed by a three-year supervised release, for the offense of immigration fraud.<\/p>\n<p>U.S. Probation Officer Gregory F. Arriola stated in his declaration in support of petition to revoke the supervised release that last Jan. 8, a report was filed in court after Aguon admitted to using methamphetamine or \u201cice\u201d on Sept. 28, 2015.<\/p>\n<p>Arriola disclosed that last Feb. 8, Aguon\u2019s probation conditions were modified to include the conversion of 100 hours of community service to a fine of $605. <\/p>\n<p>Aguon\u2019s supervised release then commenced on Sept. 26, 2014 and is set to expire on Sept. 25, 2017.<\/p>\n<p>Gregory said Aguon committed violations of his probation after police arrested him last Aug. 29 over the sexual abuse of a minor boy incident.<\/p>\n<p>Gregory summarized the police report pertaining to the incident that led to Aguon\u2019s arrest.<\/p>\n<p>Aguon has been in detention for failing to post $100,000 cash bail on charges of sexual abuse of a minor in the first degree, assault and battery, and disturbing the peace.<\/p>\n<p>Police Detective Catherine B. Pangelinan stated in her report that three police officers responded to a residence in Chalan Kanoa on Aug. 28 to investigate a report about sexual abuse of a minor.<\/p>\n<p>Pangelinan said the officers met a woman, who alleged that Aguon sexually abused her 10-year-old son.<\/p>\n<p>Pangelinan said the boy confessed to his father that earlier that he was playing basketball at Chalan Kanoa District 3 when Aguon came and asked to follow him to his house to build a camp.<\/p>\n<p>Aguon brought the boy to an abandoned vehicle parked outside his house. The defendant then sexually abused the boy inside the abandoned vehicle.<\/p>\n<p>In October 2010, the Superior Court imposed a two-year prison term on Aguon for sexual abuse of a minor girl.<\/p>\n<p>Aguon was also arrested and charged before for, among other cases, sexually abusing minor girls. He pleaded guilty to involuntary manslaughter and served prison term over the killing of a Kosraean man in Kannat Tabla in 2001.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The federal court on Friday summoned probationer Steven Romie Aguon to appear in court after&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":23,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[4],"tags":[1096,205,1923,13341],"class_list":["post-236195","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-local-news","tag-chalan-kanoa-district","tag-kannat-tabla","tag-probation-office","tag-steven-romie-aguon"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.saipantribune.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/236195","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.saipantribune.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.saipantribune.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.saipantribune.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/23"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.saipantribune.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=236195"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.saipantribune.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/236195\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.saipantribune.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=236195"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.saipantribune.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=236195"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.saipantribune.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=236195"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
