WAILUKU, Hawaii (AP) _ A Roman Catholic deacon on Maui who is accused of sexually assaulting a boy posted bail today.
James ``Ron'' Gonsalves was freed after Circuit Judge Shackley Raffetto reduced the bail amount from 790-thousand dollars to 100-thousand dollars.
Members of James ``Ron'' Gonsalves' family and parishioners from St. Ann Church were in court as a show of support when Raffetto imposed a number of bail conditions.
The 68-year-old Gonsalves is required to stay inside his home, except when he's authorized to visit his attorney's office. He must stay away from minors and at least one mile away from the church.
