Court accepts guilty pleas, defers sentences and imposes probation in multiple cases
Summary
The presiding judge accepted pleas and imposed deferred probations, fines and conditions in several cases including pleas and sentences for defendants who will serve probation if they meet conditions; some matters were reset for sentencing or further work.
The presiding judge accepted guilty pleas and imposed probationary sentences or deferred proceedings in several criminal cases during the docket. The court accepted plea agreements, placed defendants on probation where specified, and in a number of matters set future dates for sentencing or continued preparation.
Among the court's formal actions: Celine Reinhart pleaded guilty to the lesser included class A misdemeanor of resisting arrest; the court followed a plea agreement to impose a one-year deferred probation and a $500 fine, with court paperwork and probation intake to follow. Rodney Ladellis, who had previously pleaded guilty to driving while intoxicated (third or more), received a suspended 10-year institutional sentence and was placed on five years' probation; the court ordered 10 days of mandatory jail time to be served on weekends beginning June 27 at 6:00 p.m., required enrollment in the Jefferson County Drug Intervention program and installation of an ignition interlock device on any vehicle he drives, and imposed a $500 fine.
Other outcomes included a five-year deferred probation and $300 fine for Rezendo Ochoa under the plea agreement; a four-year probation term with no-contact and location restrictions for Kevante Reynolds after a guilty plea to assault family violence by impeding breath or circulation; and a two-year deferred probation and $500 fine for Felicia Freddy after pleading guilty to a class A misdemeanor eluding detention. Several additional cases were reset for further proceedings, discovery or sentencing; in some matters the court deferred sentencing to allow pre-sentence reports or to await evidence or program placements.
The court repeatedly instructed defendants who were out on bond to consult with counsel, bring proof of employment or proof of retained counsel when requested, and to bring reset notices to retained attorneys. Probation intake staff were instructed to meet with defendants leaving the courtroom to complete required paperwork.
