A domestic violence defendant entered into a Deferred Sentencing Agreement (DSA) with the prosecution.
Sawan West was charged with two counts of destruction of property less than $1,000. West, 19, agreed to plead guilty to two of the charges in exchange for the prosecution dropping one of them.
As part of the agreement, West to pay $500 in restitution and not to harass the victim. He must also take anger management classes and have mental health evaluations, provided by the Court Services and Offender Supervision Agency (CSOSA.)
As part of the DSA, if West completes his requirements by the end of the deferment period, his guilty plea will be withdrawn and his case dismissed.
Judge John McCabe scheduled West’s sentencing for June 14, 2021.
