In September, 35 year old Sergio Madrone was arrested by Eureka Police Department for PC 286(b)(1) sodomy with a minor. Madrone's preliminary hearing was originally scheduled for yesterday. It was continued to 1/22/25 by defense for setting of prelim and receipt of PC1001.20 report.
Deputy District Attorney Carolyn Schaffer appeared on the case for the People yesterday. Deputy Public Defender Casey Russo is Madrone's attorney.
First, Judge Kaleb Cockrum reduced Sergio Madrone's bail. Then, Judge Cockrum granted Sergio Madrone supervised release.Sergio Madrone's mother Amber Madrone was at the OR bail hearing.
Penal Code § 1001.20 aka Cognitive Development Disability Diversion is a pre-plea diversion program for those charged with any crime and with a documented intellectual disability. This can apply in cases where a defendant is charged with a felony or misdemeanor.
This is deja vu of the Ewa Misztal case with Schaffer vs Russo and the same strategy Mr. Russo is using in the Ashley Pearce-Pifferini case. Is their any crime or alleged crime where Mr. Russo will not use the diversion tactic?
Court minutes for Madrone were not in the system and there is a motion to continue in Pearce-Pifferini's case. Those minutes were also noy in the system when I checked. An update on Pearce-Pifferini will be added to the previous post since it is a motion to continue. A lot of cases are being continued which is why you haven't seen many new court posts and why I am in no rush to do those updates.
