MAN PLEADS TO DOMESTIC INCIDENT
DANIEL CANCELLARO of 232 Dewitt Mills Road, Hurley, pled guilty Thursday,
April 6, 2017, in Ulster County Court before County Court Judge Donald A.

seven years in prison and five years post-release supervision for that offense
and was on parole supervision when he committed the offense.
