West Boca News is trying something new, for us: A blotter, reporting arrests for the past week of West Boca residents. It should be noted that in our country, all of them are innocent at this stage of the legal process. West Boca News supports the presumption of innocence.
First on the list, and pictured, is Joseph Sanders. Mr. Sanders was arrested on October 3rd by Boynton Beach PD, accused of selling amphetamines. He was released the next day without having to post bail. Sanders reported address is on Boca River Circle, northeast of the Glades Road Library.
Next up is Craig Grossman, whose address is reported to be in the Stonebridge community west of 441 and north of Clint Moore.
Mr. Grossman was arrested on October 1st and released four hours later on a $3000 bond. With a bond that large, the chances are he is going to need the services of a team like that of Mr Nice Guy Bail Bonds, who are the Santa Ana Bail Bonds experts. The charge is Section 817.034 of the Florida statutes, “Fraud-Swindle” of an amount under $20,000, which we think is a 3rd degree felony (3rd being the lowest level of felonies).
We suspect, but can’t say for sure, that this is the same Craig Grossman who was sentenced to 32 months in federal prison for defrauding UPS and Federal Express back in 2002. See story in the Chicago Tribune.
Mark Callahan was arrested for allegedly selling cocaine and/or opiates on October 1st. It appears he is still being held in the Main Detention Center.
Mr. Callahan’s reported address is on Watergate Circle, a neighborhood of which runs between Tradewinds and SW Sandalfoot (west of 441). The street number of the address doesn’t seem to fit with our maps.
Accused of dealing in stolen property and “fraud – false statement”, Stephanie Cruz-Ramirez was arrested on October 2nd and released the next day to “SOR” which we believe is some kind of supervision. The sheriff’s blotter also indicates a bond, but it’s not clear whether that was required.
Cruz-Ramirez’ reported address is in Sandalfoot Cove (east of 441).
Cassie Richardson was arrested on October 4th and released the same day on bond.
Ms. Richardson is charged with several counts of possessing controlled substances without a prescription, and one count of using or possessing drug equipment. Her reported address is on Stacey Lane, west of the Hammock Street Church between Winikoff and Palmetto.
Joseph Duda was arrested on October 4th and remains in custody at this writing. He’s accused of two counts of battery, one of which indicates domestic violence by strangulation and is a 3rd degree felony.
Mr. Duda’s address is in Sandalfoot Cove, east of Lyons Road and between the Boca Dunes entrance and Hammock Pointe Elementary School.
Michael Rayoni was arrested last night on one count of battery. It appears no determination has been made yet on release or bond.
Rayoni’s reported address is just off SW Sandalfoot Blvd on 228th Lane.
David Kornstadt was booked early this morning for aggravated assault with a deadly weapon, without intent to kill, which is a 3rd degree felony. His reported address is on Sleepy Brook Way just south of Winikoff, across from the Boca Glades Baptist Church.
Mr. Kornstadt appears to run a business installing irrigation systems through his company, Sales Service South, Inc., though Sunbiz.org indicates the company was dissolved about a week ago.
It looks like no release determination has been made yet on his case.
We also have an update on the incident involving West Boca Teen Nicholas DeSalvo. WPTV reports that two other defendants have been charged, Christopher MacDonald and Rose Cohen. Neither showed up in the Sheriff’s blotter so we suspect they were issued appearance tickets but were not formally arrested and booked into the jail.
Here’s a test map of arrestee addresses for the past week:
