Three people are headed to prison to serve their original sentences after their probations were revoked recently in District Judge Ernie B. Armstrong’s courtroom.

Miguel Angel Gallegos Jr., 19, of Snyder, was originally given probation on two charges, a third-degree felony charge of evading arrest and a state-jail felony charge of unauthorized use of a motor vehicle.

On April 30, 2015, Gallegos fled from a peace officer he knew was trying to arrest or detain him.

He was originally given a five-year probated sentence, deferred adjudication, and ordered to pay a $1,500 fine and $60 in court costs, as well as to participate in the TAIP program.

That same day, he used an automobile without the permission of its owner.

On that charge he was given a two-year sentence, probated five years, and ordered confined to state jail for 180 days. He was also ordered to pay a $1,500 fine and $610 in court and attorney fees, as well as to participate in the TAIP program.

Both probations were revoked after he tested positive for THC on Aug. 2, 2016 and Jan. 3, 2017.

He also failed to report to his probation officer between February and August this year, and failed to make his monthly probation, fine, court and attorney payments, nor did he complete community service, multiple times between January 2016 and August 2017.

He will serve the sentences concurrently.

Bianca Naomi Jalamos, 33, of Snyder, had her probation on a third-degree felony forgery charge revoked after she tested positive for cocaine and marijuana in May. 

She also failed to report to her probation officer between June and August this year, and failed to make her monthly probation, fine, court and attorney payments, nor did she complete community service, multiple times between March and August 2017.

Jalamos was originally given a five-year probated sentence and ordered to pay a $1,500 fine, $100 in restitution and $60 in court costs, as well as to participate in the TAIP program.

The original charge stemmed from a September 2016 incident in which she attempted to pass a counterfeit $100 bill to her victim.

Cody Jim Guerrero, 24, of Snyder, had his probation on a state-jail felony charge conviction for graffiti overturned after he failed to report to his probation officer between May 2016 and May 2017, and failed to make his monthly probation, fine, court and attorney payments, nor did he complete community service, multiple times between June 2015 and August 2017.

Guerrero was originally given a two-year sentence, probated five years, deferred adjudication in exchange for a guilty plea to a charge that he had vandalized four properties by using spray paint during June 2012. The damage in each instance was between $1,500 and $20,000.

As part of his original sentence he was ordered to pay a $1,000 fine, $60 in court costs and $15,750 in restitution, as well as participate in the TAIP program.
