Ex-CRM exec allegedly violates release conditions
Reporter
U.S. District Court for the NMI Chief Judge Ramona V. Manglona summoned yesterday a former Coastal Resources Management official who was convicted of wire fraud in 2007.
U.S. Probation Officer Gregory F. Arriola petitioned for a warrant or summons last Sept. 23 for Benny K. Pangelinan for allegedly violating his supervised release conditions.
Pangelinan, who was placed on three years of supervised release after completing 37 months in prison, allegedly violated the requirement not to commit any federal, state or local crimes, that he report to the probation officer and submit a truthful and complete written report within the first five days of each month, and to truthfully answer all inquiries and follow the instructions of the probation officer.
A federal jury found Pangelinan guilty in January 2007 on five charges of wire fraud. Then U.S. District Court for the NMI Chief Judge Alex R. Munson ordered Pangelinan to pay a total of $129,250 in restitution to Pang Hong Cabrera, Renato Batallones, Conrad M. Sablan, Sachiko Adachi, and Gene Oden.
