Springfield teen denies assaulting pregnant girlfriend, admits smashing television and cell phone, police say By Jack Flynn | jflynn@repub.com on March 03, 2015 at 6:30 AM, updated March 03, 2015 at 6:33 AM SPRINGFIELD - Instead of punching his pregnant girlfriend Sunday morning, Jesus Pizarro-Reyes decided to kick a hole in her television and hurl her phone against the wall, according to his arrest report. "It looks like you won't be calling (the police) after all," Pizarro-Reyes, 18, told his girlfriend after damaging her phone during a fight at their Lionel Benoit Road apartment, the report states. But his girlfriend managed to reassemble the phone and call 911, leading to his arrest later Sunday morning on felony assault charges. In Springfield District Court Monday, Pizarro-Reyes pleaded innocent to aggravated domestic assault and battery, witness intimidation, threat to commit a crime and malicious property damage. During the arraignment, defense lawyer Randy Milou said his client never struck his 22-year old girlfriend and their argument had ended by the time police arrived. But Pizarro-Reyes acknowledged taking his anger out on his girlfriend's television and cell phone and also admitted striking her in the past, the arrest report states. Pizarro-Reyes is listed as both an employee and student at Balliet Middle School in Springfield in the police report. The girlfriend, described as being "visibly pregnant" with the defendant's child, is also mother of a young boy who was sleeping in the apartment as the couple fought. The boy is not Pizarro-Reyes' child, the report states. The couple began arguing late Saturday night and by 4 a.m. Pizarro-Reyes was enraged, the woman told police. When she asked him to leave, he refused; when she threatened to call police, he responded, "If the cops show up, something bad is going to happen," according to the report. Then the defendant kicked a hole in the television and began damaging furniture, saying "this is what I can do," the woman said. He also threatened to punch her. When she raised her hands in self-defense, he grabbed her phone and threw it against the wall, the woman told police. After collecting pieces of the phone, she locked herself in the bathroom; as he banged on the door, she managed to reassemble it and call 911, the woman said. When police arrived, the defendant admitted damaging the television and phone, but offered an explanation. "Mr. Pizarro-Reyes told officers ... that he hit and destroyed those things to keep from hitting her as he had the urge to," the report said. At the defense lawyer's request, Judge Jacklyn Connly released the defendant on personal recognizance and scheduled a pretrial conference April 19. She also ordered the Pizarro-Reyes to have no contact with the defendant. http://www.masslive.com/news/index.ssf/2015/03/instead_of_punching_pregnant_g.html

Designated driver charged with drug possession, driving without a license was being good Samaritan, defense lawyer says By Jack Flynn | jflynn@repub.com on October 22, 2014 at 7:00 AM, updated October 22, 2014 at 7:02 AM SPRINGFIELD - Maybe Amy B. Beltrandi was not the best choice for designated driver. Despite a revoked driver’s license and a recent warrant for her arrest, the 37-year old Springfield resident was piloting a red pickup truck along Carew Street Friday night with only one working headlight. After Springfield police pulled the vehicle over, they found crack cocaine in a cigarette pack next to Beltrandi’s seat, and more in her pocketbook, Springfield District Court records show. During Beltrandi's arraignment Monday on drug and motor vehicle charges, defense lawyer Randy Milou explained that his client was a victim of circumstance, pressed into driving the truck because its owner - who was sitting in the front passenger seat - was too drunk. “She was a being a good Samaritan,” said the lawyer, noting that the cigarette pack was wedged between the driver’s and passenger’s seat. “Those drugs were not her’s,” he added. After searching the vehicle, police allowed a passenger in the back seat with a valid license to drive it from the scene; Beltrandi, 37, of 77 Drexel St., was held over the weekend and pleaded not guilty Monday to possession of a Class B drug; operating with a revoked license and a lights violation. Beltrandi, who has also lived in Agawam and South Hadley, is facing drug possession, breaking and entering and larceny charges in Westfield District Court. When she failed to appear last month for a hearing, court officials issued a warrant for her arrest. She is also on probation in Eastern Hampshire District Court in Belchertown for operating under the influence, and has a 2007 conviction for possession of a Class B drug, court records show. In Springfield District Court on Monday, her lawyer asked Judge William Boyle to release his client on personal recognizance. Any amount of bail would be a hardship, Milou argued, since his client has two children and no income. Given her outstanding warrant in Westfield District Court, Beltrandi would remain in custody anyhow while being transported to Westfield for a default hearing, the lawyer said. Boyle said he would consider the lawyer’s argument if Beltrandi took and passed a drug test - an offer she refused. He set bail at $500 cash and $5,000 surety, and scheduled a pre-trial hearing for Nov. 10. http://www.masslive.com/news/index.ssf/2014/10/designated_driver_cited_for_re.html
