After one of two men convicted of breaking into the dorm room of HCC Basketball Coach Steve Eck and robbing him was brought back to Reno County after he failed to appear for sentencing, Daniel Flamma-Sherman will be sentenced Thursday.
It was in January of last year when he entered a plea to a lesser offense of robbery, and aggravated burglary. The state dropped the aggravated part to the robbery charge, and also dropped charges of felony theft and conspiracy to commit aggravated burglary.
Flamma-Sherman was suspected of being the one who actually went into the coaches room while Coach Eck was sleeping and stealing from him. He was also expected to testify against the co-defendant Quantel Denson, but he also entered a plea and was sentenced to 32-month in prison, then granted 36-months community corrections.
His case falls in a what is called a border box, which is still presumptive prison, however the judge has the discretion to grant some form of probation in the case.
Flamma-Sherman is in the Reno County jail on a 100-thousand dollar bond after he was picked up in Kansas City, Missouri.
