Serrano molestation trial postponed
PASADENA - The trial for a Monrovia man accused of luring underage girls via the Internet and molesting them has been postponed until next month, court officials said.
Gregory Scott Serrano, 34, was initially scheduled to go on trial Feb. 9, officials said, however it has been rescheduled for March 2.
Serrano has been charged with 20 counts of child molestation in the alleged crimes, which officials allege date back to June of 2006.
In addition to the local charges, Serrano has been indicted on 23 federal charges, United States Attorney's officials said.
Serrano was jailed in March of last year after a 15-year-old girl reported the alleged molestation to her parents, officials said.
Serrano's alleged victims range in age from 13 to 17 years old, officials said.
