U.S. District Judge Helen Frye on Monday scheduled sentenc ing for Nov. 24 for Thomas Ma rengo, 29, and Richard Sciac chetano, 32. Both face a possi ble 15-year prison term and $45,000 in fines. Each pleaded guilty to con spiring to import marijuana, possession with intent to dis tribute marijuana and importing marijuana. Assistant U S. Attorney Ken neth Bauman said in exchange for the guilty pleas, the govern ment would dismiss a fourth count of conspiracy against the two men. A third defendant, Tommy Tindall, 35, a Virginia resident, was scheduled to go to trial Monday afternoon. He is charged in four counts of the 10-count indictment. Five of the original 17 defen dants in Oregon’s largest mar ijuana prosecution pleaded guilty and received jail terms from eight months to four years. Twelve chose to go to trial. Four of those defendants failed to appear for trial, which was shifted to San Francisco. They are being sought as fugi tives. The remaining eight were convicted and sentenced to terms of four to 10 years. Seven are appealing their convictions. The prosecution stemmed from a Dec. 31, 1977 raid on a Thai stick unloading operation off the Southern Oregon Coast near Bandon. Sciacchetano and Marengo admitted to the judge Monday that they conspired to bring the marijuana into Oregon and dis tribute it. Marengo admitted go ing to Thailand to help arrange the operation.
