Top Headlines Attorney scoffs that police made 'big production' out of search for defendant
ATTLEBORO - The subject of a city manhunt was ordered held in jail without bail Thursday after pleading innocent in Attleboro District Court to domestic assault, unlawful possession of ammunition and drug charges.Samuel J. St. Angelo, 18, of 146 South Ave. in Attleboro, was sought by police in a massive search Wednesday involving a state police helicopter and police dogs because authorities feared he was armed. But St. Angelo's lawyer, Brian Roman of North Attleboro, argued his client should be released on bail, saying the police made a "big production" out of the manhunt in what started out as a domestic dispute. He argued no one saw his client with a gun and no weapon was recovered. The series of events was set off around 2 a.m. Wednesday when police were flagged down on North Main Street by the father of St. Angelo's girlfriend. He told officers his daughter called him on his cellphone to say she was assaulted by St. Angelo, according to court records. Police responded to the apartment of the girlfriend, Stephanie Caruso, 20, of 13 Hillcrest Drive in Attleboro, where they say they found nine rounds of .45-caliber ammunition in a nightstand, a marijuana plant and drug paraphernalia in a bedroom. Roman said the rounds of ammunition police found are possibly "duds" and noted that the girlfriend was also charged. According to court records and police, Caruso will be summoned to court at a later date for unlawful possession of ammunition and marijuana possession-related charges. Caruso told police she had been struck in the leg by St. Angelo, but declined medical treatment. Police chased a man they believed to be St. Angelo that night but he eluded them. Around 4 p.m., police began the massive search after they learned from witnesses and residents of the Hillcrest Oaks public housing project that St. Angelo was known to carry a gun, prosecutor Jessica Lennon said. State and local police and two state police dogs apprehended St. Angelo around 7:30 p.m., hiding in bushes behind an automotive repair business at 807 South Main St. near St. Stephen's Cemetery. Lennon asked Judge Robert E. Baylor to revoke his bail on a previous case and order him held in jail without bail. The probation department is also seeking a probation violation hearing. He is due back in court June 24.

As far as the folks living in the projects, it's been a long time since I went there - but there were some good families there.

I disagree with the majority of the people on this site about 99% of the time, so I'd be the last to defend anyones comments. Still, read from the bottom to the top, I didn't see one post pointing a finger at Sam because of where he was from or anything mentioning his race, religion, hair color, height/weight? The majority of the responses were replies back to Rick, who has his own bag of issues to deal with. Nobody here brought up the projects, he did. You can't post on a public forum and butcher pretty much every word in every sentence and not expect people to comment on your spelling. The fact that this guy kicked his girlfriend isn't the issue, he ran and was said to have a weapon. Should the APD just leave him alone, let him run away and hope he doesn't hurt anyone? What if he did hurt someone? What if he walked into Dodgeville and shot someone with that gun; the same people saying the APD went to far would be looking for the head of the cops that let the kid run without looking for him.

I think calling this an assault is exzaggerating a little bit. She was kicked in the leg,(that's right from her(Stef) mouth) and needed no medical attention. I don't condone that, and its not right but it was made out to be like she was beaten up bad and needed seriously medical attention. All I was trying to get at was we've gotten way off topic. No need to degrade people for where they live, or what type of education they have. I have a child out of wedlock, many people do in todays society.. I'm an excellent mother and my boyfriend is a great dad. I was just saying we all do things that he listed but we all make mistakes! " skeptic wrote on Jun 3, 2008 12:03 PM: " To proudmom3 - "It doesnt matter if your a good citizen"? I would think that's the whole point of this discussion. What are you teaching your kids? I think "Realist" was rebutting "randykfx" that anyone who follows the law is an "angel". The behaviors listed by "Realist" are what we, who grew up in the 70's, were told was normal and expected. A joke, no. Just wondering when society deteriorated to the point where we defend someone who allegedly assaulted a woman - a mother - then tries to run. The courts will decide, sure, but when did this become acceptable. I agree that the child needs to be taken care of or we will have another generation thinking it's okay to assault women. " proudmom3 wrote on Jun 3, 2008 11:31 AM: " So here's an article about a young man that made some poor decisions. And by the looks of it a innocent child that will suffer in the long run. And somehow you have turned this into a joke. Who cares if someone graduates and gets a diploma, and goes an gets a GED. Or if your from the projects or live in $400, 000 house. It doesnt matter if your a good citizen, if you go to church, if you vote, or what sports team you cheer for. This isn't about any of you! Act like adults, keep this poor child who was living in a house that obviously wasn't safe in your thoughts.

You state the bullets found are from several years ago... why on earth would an 18 year old be carring dud's found 5 or so years ago? What's the point?

" realist wrote on May 30, 2008 2:49 PM: " I was just going to drop this thread until I read the comment by proudmom3. This was not a domestic dispute, it was assault. That's serious. The fugitive was suspected of being armed, also serious. What would you have the police do, give up and go home figuring he'll turn up sooner or later? Maybe he would go back and finish the job. Then all these comments would be about the police not caring. I have one question for his defenders. If he is innocent why didn't give up to face the charges? They don't go away you know.

" proudmom3 wrote on May 30, 2008 1:28 PM: " I don't know anyone involving this story but just reading the artices..It seems crazy that all of this was needed for a supposed domestic dispute. I could only imagine what they would do over something more serious. I also want to add that I hope the girl gets into trouble too..Shame on her for having pot plants in an apartment with a child.

" realist wrote on May 30, 2008 1:24 PM: " Okay -- again, I can't understand half of what slickrick is posting. But to respond to a few points -- 1. Going into the little shed is breaking and entering, even if you're a kid. 2. The woman was arrested regarding the ammunition and plants. 3.Have you ever been involved in a search in a wooded area for someone who WANTED to be found? that's difficult. Finding someone who's trying to hide in that area is very tough. I'm glad the police kept at it. Three hours isn't bad for the task 4. As for your eloquent, Clarence Darrow style, defense of your friend, remember this from Hamlet " * The lady doth protest too much, methinks." Please have it translated from English if needed.

" slickrick11789 wrote on May 30, 2008 12:53 PM: " ok 1st of all the the witnesses where little kids running around pretending to be police officers saying there was a man in the woods with a gun.witch is not ture.because....sam did not have a gun then or anyother time in the past,and im not the one to lie,if he did have a gun i wouldent defend him so strongly,i would say wow what a dummy but he did not have a gun.........and the apparment was in stefs name it her house not sams but no one wants to ask the question. oo maybe the bullets and pot plant are hers.and if he assalted her so badly how come she dident call the police her slef she called her farther and he called the police...thats kind of strange ya think. " slickrick11789 wrote on May 30, 2008 12:46 PM: " im saying,we where 13 year old teenagers playing in the woods doing what kids should do,and came across a lil shed,mind you right out in the open no lock on the door nothing, with boxes upon boxes of empty shells and we where looking though them and happen to come across ones that havent been fired and figured that where duds and we took them,maybe you should turn and point the your finger at your lovely police department for leaveing shuff like that around where kids can find it..suppose your kids found them you wouldent be so quick to point the finger at sam but no,you sit back drinking you coffee beliveing what the sun chronical says...what a life huh " realist wrote on May 30, 2008 12:43 PM: " Further to slickrick11789 "police began the massive search after they learned from witnesses and residents of the Hillcrest Oaks public housing project that St. Angelo was known to carry a gun" -- It looks like not everyone in the projects "have sams back". BTW - people living in the projects are the guests of the Housing Authority. They do not have the right to live there. People like St. Angelo put the honest people in danger.

Are you saying you knew a 13 year old had ammunition and you did nothing about it?
