Judge amends bond conditions for plumber Marcos Antonio Rios to GPS tracking, no contact with minors and workplace safeguards
Summary
A negotiated bond amendment for Marcos Antonio Rios was entered on the record: GPS tracking, no contact with minors, and a requirement that a coworker or supervisor be present in residences; pretrial services to receive weekly compliance notices.
In a joint, agreed motion, the state and defense secured an amended bond for Marcos Antonio Rios that imposes GPS tracking, a no-contact order with minors and workplace safeguards when Rios works inside residences.
Assistant prosecutors and defense counsel told the court they had discussed the motion with the family and reached a compromise. The state said it was “in agreement with the defendant’s motion to change it to tracking only and add a no contact order with any minor child.” Defense counsel and the judge discussed practical details for tradespeople: if Rios must enter a residence, a coworker must accompany him or a supervisor must provide weekly written notice to pretrial services. The judge signed the motion and set a 45-day reset for discovery and a return date in September for follow-up.
The amendment reflects an attempt to preserve Rios’s ability to work in commercial plumbing while limiting the risk of unsupervised contact with minors in private homes. The court recorded that GPS would be required; fees and other monitoring specifics were handled through pretrial services.
Ending: The court accepted the parties’ negotiated conditions to balance employment and safety; a discovery/reset date was scheduled for Sept. 8, and the defense was directed to obtain and file discovery materials noted by the state.
