Willet Man Arrested After Violating Stay Away Order – Remanded to County Jail on no Bail

A Willet man is behind bars after officers with the Cortland County Sheriff’s Office responded to an address on Bloody Pond Road in Willet just after 11:30 in the morning on Sunday, October 5th.

The Sheriff’s Office says their response to the address was for an attempt to locate 71 year old James P. Allen of Willet, who had an active warrant for his arrest. When officers were at the residence, they found Allen had violated the terms of a full stay away order of protection.

Officers arrested Allen for his warrant and additionally charged him with Criminal Contempt in the 2nd, a Misdemeanor for violating the stay away order. He was taken to the Sheriff’s Office for processing and was later arraigned via the Centralized Arraignment Process. Allen was remanded to Cortland County Jail on no bail.

He is due in Willet Town Court next month.
