Superior Court Judge David A. Wiseman allowed Rogolofoi to post $500 as 10 percent of her bail order, and the remainder as a $4,500 appearance bond.
Rogolofoi is being held on charges of disturbing the peace, assault and battery, and assault with a dangerous weapon.
Wiseman directed Rogolofoi to stay away from the residence of her nephew.
The defendant was remanded to the custody of the Department of Corrections after her initial appearance and bail hearing yesterday morning.
Assistant Attorney General Russel Lorfing represented the government, while the court appointed Assistant Public Defender Benjamin Petersburg as Rogolofoi’s counsel.
Detective Simon Manacop said the incident occurred on Oct. 10, 2011.
Police were dispatched to the victim’s residence in San Jose after a disturbance in the area was reported at about 12:37 a.m.
The victim suffered an open wound on his forehead after he was hit with a 12-inch flashlight, police said. The open wound required six stitches.
Police said the victim arrived home a little after midnight. He was told that Rogolofoi went to his house and began getting mad at the victim’s common-law wife.
Rogolofoi also unplugged power lines that connected to the victim’s house, leaving them without power.
The victim inquired with his auntie why she disconnected power, considering the victim had a new born baby.
Rogolofoi responded that she didn’t care, police said.
The victim immediately reconnected the power line to his house and took out his frustration by disconnecting the power lines that lead to Rogolofoi’s house, police said.
While holding a flashlight, Rogolofoi confronted the victim, and hit him in the head with her flashlight in the ensuing argument.
