FOUR adults were
arrested in connection with alleged sexual assaults on three minors in
separate incidents.
One of the adults arrested is the mother of one of the victims who blamed
her daughter instead of confronting a man.
Diana Reyes, 45, was indicted by a grand jury for child abuse after telling
her daughter not to mind Melvin Rosario Santos because the alleged sexual
offender was only drunk.
Santos, 47, was charged with two counts of first-degree criminal sexual
conduct as a first-degree felony, assault with intent to commit criminal
sexual conduct as a third-degree felony, two counts of fourth-degree criminal
sexual conduct as a misdemeanor, and assault.
Reyes and Santos were arrested.
According to the victim, Santos, who is her mothers boyfriend, sexually
assaulted her sometime around Christmas of 2006.
The victim said she tried to get away from Santos but he forced her to
open her legs before she managed to free herself.
The victim reported that Santos slapped her face and punched her leg regularly
and when she tried to tell her mother about the incident, Reyes said it
was the victims fault.
Santos has a prior conviction in the Superior Court of Guam for hindering
apprehension in Sept. 1997.
He was also convicted for driving while under the influence of alcohol
on July 1, 1981.
Another minor reported that she was sexually assaulted by Robert Manglona
at the back of his residence.
Manglona was charged with two counts of first-degree criminal sexual conduct
as a first-degree felony and two counts of child abuse as a misdemeanor.
Another minor was sexually assaulted after watching a soccer game in March
2007.
Florencio Supe Villamor Jr., 47, parked his blue pick up truck parallel
to a dirt road and asked the minor, Do you and your boyfriend have
sex?
The minor reported that Villamor pulled out a condom and a small packet
of lubricator from his pocket and told the minor, I can teach you
how to use these things since you are already a teenager.
The victim said she was frightened and told Villamor that she wanted to
go home but the man ignored her plea and started touching her private
parts.
The minor reported the incident to the police. When confronted by police,
Villamor told the minor that he was sorry.
Villamor was charged with fourth-degree criminal sexual conduct as a misdemeanor,
family violence, assault, child abuse and harassment.
