Probation ordered for Almond man charged in family dispute

An Almond man will spend five years on probation for violating a court order. Prosecutors said 26-year-old Juston Conklin violated an order of protection during a domestic dispute on Steenrod Road in Friendship in April.  He was convicted of first-degree criminal contempt, a felony charge. The judge also ordered six months of electronic home monitoring and issued an order of protection for five years. Prosecutors said Conklin was involved in a physical domestic dispute with a child present and when he left the home, he broke a glass porch window. Conklin disregarded a court order to stay away. The case was prosecuted by J. Thomas Fuoco from the DA's office and Conklin was represented by J. R. Santana from the Public Defender's Office.
