More than 30 charges dropped against burglary suspect in plea deal

A Hancock man accused in a string of burglaries has been sentenced to serve 60 days in jail after reaching a plea deal with prosecutors. As a result of the agreement, more than 30 charges of burglary and theft that had been filed against Jacob Richardson were dismissed, according to documents filed in Hancock County Unified Criminal Court. Richardson, 20, pleaded guilty Monday to one charge of burglary, two charges of theft and one charge of reckless conduct, the last of which resulted from a 25-minute standoff with police when they went to execute a search warrant at his home last November. [See all Hancock County coverage here] Richardson received an overall sentence of 18 months in prison with all but 60 days suspended, plus two years of probation upon his release.
