A 26-year-old Mescalero Apache Nation man was sentenced to 21 months in prison for escaping from a halfway house and failing to update his sex offender registration.
Tyree Brent Mariano, an enrolled member of the Mescalero Apache Nation, was sentenced in federal court to 21 months in prison followed by three years of supervised release for violating the Sex Offender Registration and Notification Act (SORNA).
Mariano was arrested on May 21, 2016, on an indictment charging him with violating SORNA by failing to update his sex offender registration and escaping from a half-way house where he was confined following his conviction on a child sexual abuse charge.
According to the indictment, Mariano failed to update his registration between July 8, 2015, and March 8, 2016, in Bernalillo County, N.M.
Mariano pled guilty to the indictment on Aug. 3, 2016. In entering the guilty plea, Mariano admitted that he was a sex offender as a result of his child sexual abuse conviction on April 19, 2012.
On June 11, 2015, Mariano registered as a sex offender with the Bernalillo County Sheriff’s Office and was residing in a halfway house in Albuquerque as a condition of his supervised release following his release from prison.
Mariano will also be required to register as a sex offender when he completes his prison sentence.
