Ryan Tenney, who admitted to embezzling more than $100,000 from his former employer, Elcon, Inc., still hasn't been sentenced for his crimes.
While his attorney would like to delay his sentencing at least one more time, Judge Robert Noonan ruled this morning that the sentencing scheduled for 9 a.m. Jan. 4 will stay on the court calender.
"I'm not yet certain Mr. Tenney should be out (of incarceration) in long-term treatment," Noonan said. "It won't take much from Hope Haven to report a rules violation to go straight to sentencing."
Tenney was released from jail on Dec. 2 to enter substance abuse treatment at Hope Haven. A report on his progress was not available to Noonan this morning, so even though Hope Haven is recommending Tenney now be placed in Trapping Brook, another treatment house, Noonan didn't want to delay the scheduled sentencing.
Tenney's attorney Gary Horton said after court that a bed could open for Tenney at Trapping Brook within days.
