Taos man gets four and a half years for assault on officers
Jaime Romero, 30, pleaded guilty to two counts of battery on a peace officer and one count of attempted disarming a peace officer, all fourth-degree felonies, and was sentenced to four and a half years in the Central New Mexico Correctional Facility. He will receive time served plus parole. The case stems from a July 31, 1999, incident in Taos when Romero fought Taos police officers Isaac Valerio and David Maggio and attempted to seize Maggio’s pistol amid an earlier nine-year murder sentence. The plea deal dropped related charges including a 1998 AK-47 theft and other misdemeanor counts.
