A 28-year-old Hutchinson man who entered pleas the cases against him was ordered to prison in one case, while granted community corrections in the other.
Judge Trish Rose ordered Timothy Bohannan to prison for 21-months for three counts of burglary. She couldn’t find any compelling reason to give a departure which was requested by the defense.
But, later in another courtroom with District Judge Tim Chambers, Bohannan’s attorney again asked for a departure which was against the wishes of the state, but this time it was granted. Judge Chambers sentenced Bohannan to a total of 26-months for three charges, that being theft by deception and two counts of forgery. He then granted 12-months community corrections, however the corrections won’t even begin till after he serves the nearly two years in prison.
The cases start against Bohannan for a burglary occurring between December 14, and December 21, 2012 when he broke into a home and stole electronic items from the owner. He’s also accused of making false information on a pawn ticket.
For burglaries back on June 10, 2013, he’s alleged to have broken into two different apartments at 441 North Washington where he stole personal items from two women.
And between June 10 and June 13, 2013, he stole a camera and lens and then again making false information on a pawn ticket. The theft case rises to a felony because of two or more prior convictions.
Bohannan has a felony conviction for drugs that goes back to 2005. He was discharged from that case in 2008. He also has prior misdemeanor theft convictions.
