A defendant accepted a plea deal and was sentenced to time served plus one year of supervised probation on June 24.
Dwanna Cobbs pleaded guilty to simple assault, destruction of property and second-degree theft. He was initially charged with robbery, simple assault, destruction of property less than $1,000, unlawful entry, second-degree theft, possession of an open container of alcohol and a bail violation on Oct. 5, 2019.
As part of the plea agreement, Cobbs’ robbery, unlawful entry, possession of an open container of alcohol and bail violation charges were dropped.
Judge Michael Ryan said that Cobbs’ main focus should be receiving mental health and drug treatment.
He also said that if Cobbs follows the conditions of her probation for three months by calling her probation officer once a week and receiving treatment, he will allow the remainder of her probation to be unsupervised.
