A bench warrant has been issued for a man who is believed to have fled Saipan after he failed to show up in court to face charges of theft.<\/p>\n
Superior Court Presiding Judge Roberto Naraja issued Monday the bench warrant of $5,000 for the arrest of Aris Maderal Olivos, 42. <\/p>\n
Olivos failed to appear for his arraignment last March 4. Multiple sources said that Olivos had left the island back in February after he received a penal summons that was personally delivered to him. <\/p>\n
Olivos allegedly robbed the Saipan Vegas Golf Resort and Slot Club of over $20,000 back in June 2018. <\/p>\n
It is believed that Olivos used to work at the Saipan Vegas Golf Resort and Slot Club, but the establishment has yet to confirm this with the Saipan Tribune. <\/p>\n
The Commonwealth, through acting chief prosecutor Heather Barcinas, asked the court to issue the bench warrant. <\/p>\n
According to court information, on or between May 27, 2018, and June 1, 2018, Olivos allegedly stole approximately $20,697.36 in vouchers and U.S. currency from Saipan Vegas Golf Resort & Slot Club in Chalan Laulau.<\/p>\n
As the property stolen has a value of more than $20,000, the theft charge is punishable by a maximum 10 years imprisonment.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
