Source: Inland Valley Daily Bulletin, Calif.迷你倉Aug. 28--SAN BERNARDINO -- The probation revocation hearing for a former high school wrestler convicted of having unlawful sex with two teenage girls was continued so a judge could review the case.Judge Arthur Harrison had sentenced Seth Whisner, 20, to five years of probation after the defendant accepted a plea bargain in June.Whisner was released from custody on June 10, but re-arrested on July 25 for allegedly violating his probation.Now Judge Vic Stull, who is not yet familiar with the case, will take time to look over the file and decide who will make a ruling on the alleged violation, Deputy District Attorney Simon Umscheid said."The judge is not going to make a decision on a probation issue without knowing the case," Umscheid said after the hearing Tuesday at the San Bernardino Superior Court.Whisner, in custody without bail, has pleaded not guilty to the allegations. He is scheduled to be back in court on Sept. 20 where Stull is expected to decide what to do about judge appointment and probation revocation.Whisner was originally arrested April 16 after an investigation revealed he had unlawful sex with six teenage girls over a four-year period, the youngest alleged victim being 13. But the statute of limitations precluded prosecutors from charging Whisner for crimes involving four of the victims, Umscheid said.Whisner served nearly two months in jail before he signed a plea agreement on June 7. He pleaded guilty to one felony count of having unlawful sex with a girl three years younger than himself, a 15-year-old student at Rim of the World High School in Lake Arrowhead, and one misdemeanor cou自存倉t of having unlawful sex with a girl two years younger than himself -- a 17-year-old.Whisner was a former standout Lake Arrowhead wrestler who came back to Rim of the World as a volunteer coach.During Whisner's sentencing on July 23, Harrison ordered him, as one of the terms of his probation, to have no social media accounts including Facebook, Twitter and Instagram. Harrison told Whisner he could face up to three years in state prison if he violated the terms of his probation.Within hours of his sentencing, Whisner logged into Facebook and told his friends he was no longer able to use the social networking website and advised them to call him, posting his phone number, officials said.Whisner also called out his two victims by their first names, urging all his Facebook friends not to harass them, officials said.He was arrested by his probation officer two days later and booked into the Central Detention Center in San Bernardino.The victim's families are requesting the case go back to Harrison because he originally sentenced Whisner."Harrison has been our judge through the entire case," the mother of one of the victims said Tuesday.The woman, who did not want her name revealed, said Harrison promised the families that if he saw Whisner back in his courtroom he would sentence him to the full three years."We think it should be staying with the judge who knows the case, who knows the defendant and knows everything he put our kids through," the woman said.Copyright: ___ (c)2013 Inland Valley Daily Bulletin (Ontario, Calif.)
