A TWICE-CONVICTED CHILD MOLESTER HAS BEEN DENIED RELEASE. ALTHOUGH HIS ATTORNEY CLAIMS THAT 40 YEAR-OLD ANTHONY ACHILLE POLETTI MEETS THE REQUIREMENTS TO BE RELEASED WHILE HE AWAITS AN APPELLATE COURT’S DECISION, SANTA CRUZ COUNTY SUPERIOR COURT JUDGE PAUL BURDICK DENIED THAT REQUEST YESTERDAY. JUDGE BURDICK SAID HE WAS NOT CONVINCED THAT POLETTI WOULD NOT POSE A RISK.
