Ramon David Delvalle received a five-year sentence and a fine of $1,000 for failure to register as a sexual or violent offender in Montana. The sentence was part of a plea agreement.
John David Panasuk denied alleged violations of his parole conditions. Because Panasuk hasn’t yet been assigned a public defender, a case management conference was scheduled for Oct. 16.
Panasuk requested a bail reduction from the $75,000 amount. He mentioned that he has a job and wanted to seek medical treatment for health concerns.
Deputy county attorney Thomas Bleicher noted Panasuk’s criminal history.
Cybulski reduced Panasuk’s bond to $10,000 with the requirements of being under house arrest and having a GPS monitor. Besides traveling for work, Panasuk can go grocery shopping once a week and attend medical appointments but must notify the Roosevelt County Sheriff’s Office.
Breanna Luv Rahn-Lowe appeared regarding a revocation hearing. She hasn’t yet been assigned a public defender so a conference hearing for Oct. 16 was scheduled.
