Officer Troy Giovengo Charged with Trespassing


FORT PIERCE, Fla.

A Fort Pierce police officer was arrested on Thursday and charged with armed trespassing and unauthorized use of a computer network.

St. Lucie County sheriff’s detectives arrested Officer Troy Giovengo at about 12:15 p.m.

He posted $7,500 bond and was released from the St. Lucie County Jail just before 3 p.m.

Last Friday, the Port St. Lucie Police Department arrested Giovengo on aggravated stalking charges. The next day, he was released after posting $10,000 bond.

Following those events, another woman, interviewed by the St. Lucie County Sheriff’s Office, described an encounter in her home with Giovengo on Dec. 12.

The sheriff’s office’s investigation led to the new charges that were the basis for Giovengo’s arrest on Thursday.
