A Gregory man has been sentenced to 37 months in custody for his role in a brazen burglary.
Roger King, 46, was sentenced on April 15, 2014, by U.S. District Judge Roberto A. Lange, following his conviction for Second Degree Burglary.
The charges stem from an incident on June 9, 2012, when King entered a house uninvited, distracted the owner, and stole a series of blank checks, which he later cashed at local businesses.
According to court documents, King was indicted by a federal grand jury on April 12, 2013, and subsequently pled guilty on February 10, 2014.
The conviction was the result of an investigation by the Federal Bureau of Investigation. Assistant U.S. Attorney Troy R. Morley prosecuted the case.
King was immediately turned over to the custody of the U.S. Marshals Service following his sentencing. He was also ordered to pay a $100 special assessment to the Federal Crime Victims Fund.
The case serves as a reminder of the importance of protecting one’s property and being vigilant against potential threats.
