SAN DIEGO (CNS) - A woman accused of causing the death of a 74-year-old man in her care by withholding food from him over the course of several years was ordered to stand trial today on murder and other charges that could have her facing life imprisonment.Shirley Montano, 52, is accused of causing the Oct. 7, 2016, death of Robert Chagas, who died at Sharp Memorial Hospital of pneumonia, which prosecutors argue was exacerbated by severe malnutrition. Montano is additionally charged with kidnapping, elder abuse, false imprisonment, identity theft and perjury for allegedly limiting meals and keeping Chagas and an elderly woman essentially captive at the defendant's apartment, while spending the senior citizens' Social Security benefits for personal use.Deputy District Attorney Rebecca Zipp said the weight of both Chagas and the woman, Josefina Kellogg, ``plummeted once in (Montano's) care.'' Chagas was ``emaciated'' when he was brought into the hospital, where he died five days later. Montano, who allegedly posed as his niece, told medical personnel that Chagas did not wish to be resuscitated, according to testimony. Chagas' family members were only notified of his hospitalization after his death, they testified. ``She took on the duty of care and responsibility for his well-being, and that care fell so woefully short that he died in part due to inadequate nutrition,'' Zipp told San Diego County Superior Court Judge Esteban Hernandez at the conclusion of the week-long preliminary hearing.The prosecutor alleged that Chagas and Kellogg were kept isolated from others who lived with Montano and confined to their respective bedrooms. Montano's niece, who stayed with the defendant for about a year, said that for the first month she lived at her aunt's apartment, she was not even aware Kellogg existed because the woman would hardly ever emerge from her bedroom.Others who resided at Montano's apartment or visited the home were offered various explanations for Chagas and Kellogg's presence, including that Kellogg was Montano's sister or Chagas' wife, according to testimony. Kellogg testified that she stayed in her bedroom for several hours each day and feared angering Montano, who would hit her if she did not obey the rules of the house.Zipp said that Kellogg ``had no agency'' and would not even eat without Montano's permission, even when the defendant was in custody. Following Montano's arrest, she phoned her downstairs neighbor from jail and asked her to go into her unit to bathe Kellogg. The neighbor testified that she was reduced to tears upon seeing Kellogg's skeletal figure, and that the senior would not leave the apartment until the neighbor lied and said she had called Montano and received her permission. Kellogg also did not allow the had called Montano and received her permission. Kellogg also did not allow the to strike Kellogg -- because she feared moving the utensil might anger Montano, the neighbor testified.Zipp alleged that while keeping the seniors under her thumb, Montano spent their monthly benefits for personal purposes such as a new truck and frequently gambling their funds away at local casinos.``There is one person whose needs and wants she considered, and that are those of the defendant,'' Zipp said. Montano's attorney, Shannon Sebeckis, argued there was no evidence that Chagas' malnutrition was caused by Montano, and was not the natural result of aging. Sebeckis reiterated the testimony of San Diego County Chief Medical Examiner Glenn Wagner, who declined to classify Chagas' death as a homicide. Wagner said Chagas was not getting sufficient food, but he could not opine as to why, only that it appeared to be due to non-medical factors.No calls were made by family or medical professionals to Adult Protective Services in Chagas' case, which also contributed to Wagner's opinion not to classify his death as a homicide, the doctor said. While evidence was presented that Chagas once told a doctor that his weight loss was due to not having enough money for food, Sebeckis said this was not proof that Montano was taking his money or withholding food, especially in light of Chagas' issues with handling his own finances. Chagas' family members testified that an accident that occurred at childbirth had left him ``slow,'' as his brother Richard described it, and that throughout his adult life, Chagas was susceptible to being scammed and had lost exorbitant amounts of money to fraudsters in the past, leading family members to take an active role in assisting him with taxes and paying bills.Sebeckis argued there was little direct evidence that Montano didn't feed the seniors, as plenty of her past roommates said they had seen her providing food for Chagas and Kellogg. The attorney also said Chagas was not confined at all, and regularly left the apartment each day for his janitorial job at Sea World, which he attended with a sack lunch prepared by Montano each day.Sebeckis said it was ``pure speculation and conjecture'' that Montano didn't use the seniors' funds to pay for their basic needs. Hernandez said the murder charge was the most difficult for him to rule on, but said that the totality of circumstances held Montano culpable in Chagas' death, saying the seniors ``basically wasted away while in her care.''Montano is being held on million bail and will return to court April 11 for a Superior Court arraignment. 5423

SAN DIEGO (CNS) - An Italian restaurant in Encinitas agreed to pay ,800 to settle a pregnancy discrimination lawsuit filed by a former employee who alleged her hours were substantially cut, and she was ultimately fired, after she told her employer she was expecting, the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission announced Tuesday.After informing the owner in 2015 that she was expecting, the server was told that she "should stay home since she was pregnant, that her pregnancy had caused coverage problems, and that (the owner) would offer a position with less pay for more work so that she would not come back from her pregnancy leave," according to the complaint filed against Maurizio Trattoria Italiana LLC.She was fired in the summer of 2015, while less experienced servers were hired, according to the complaint.RELATED: Lawsuit aims to stop California's AB 5 from taking effect"Women should not be penalized for having children," said Christopher Green, director of the EEOC's San Diego office.

Park said. "The EEOC continues to see pregnancy discrimination as an ongoing problem. We encourage other employers to follow suit and review their policies and practices relating to pregnancy discrimination to ensure they are in compliance with federal law." 1917

SAN DIEGO (CNS) - A San Diego man who provided alcohol to an underage drinker who subsequently caused a crash that killed her passenger was sentenced to 240 days in custody, the City Attorney's Office announced Wednesday. Fraidoon Ahmad gave alcohol to Yolanda Lozano and Mabel Bahena, both 19, on Feb. 17, 2017. Lozano later drove while drunk and collided with a truck on Interstate 15, killing Bahena. Lozano pleaded guilty to gross vehicular manslaughter while intoxicated and was sentenced to one year in custody, with Bahena's family asking a judge for leniency as the two women had been best friends since grade school. Ahmad pleaded guilty in May to misdemeanor charges of furnishing alcohol to a person under 21 and furnishing alcohol to a minor causing great bodily injury and death.

Elliott said. ``We hope this sentence sends a clear message that there will be severe consequences for adults who provide alcohol to minors.'' According to the City Attorney's Office, Lozano and Bahena met up with Ahmad at the Myst Hookah Lounge in the Gaslamp Quarter. Lozano was responding to an ad that Ahmad posted online, seeking prospective employees for a job at a marijuana dispensary.
