U.S. District Court for the NMI Chief Judge Ramona V. Manglona remanded yesterday to the custody of the U.S. Marshal a probationer who had allegedly threatened to stab his mother.
Lucas Manglona’s term of supervised release was revoked on Feb. 23, 2012, after he was found using marijuana and methamphetamine or “ice.”
Probation Officer Gregory F. Arriola said that he received a call from Manglona’s mother on March 19, 2012, during which she told him that Transitional Living Center staff members had stopped by her residence to administer defendant’s monthly medication shot but he refused to take the shot and instead chased them away.
Manglona also allegedly threatened to stab her, forcing her to leave the house to contact the police.
That same day, police officers arrested Manglona for disturbing the peace.
In September 2011, Manglona allegedly refused to take his medication as ordered by a psychiatrist, threatened he would kill a nurse, and tested positive for marijuana use.
Manglona’s probation had been revoked several times in the past for continued use of illegal drugs and consumption of alcoholic beverages.
Manglona is one of three persons convicted of passing fake money to some stores on Saipan. In September 2009, the federal court sentenced him to a year and one day in prison and placed him on probation.
