JACKSON COUNTY, Ore. — Forty-year-old Christopher Michael Jenkins, who, without coercion, changed his plea to guilty halfway through his hearing, was sentenced to 76 months in an Oregon Department of Corrections prison.
Jenkins appeared before Judge Jeremy Markiewicz in the Jackson County Circuit Court on December 4.
Sentencing Jenkins to 76 months behind bars, Judge Markiewicz noted the aggravated nature of the crimes, as well as the fact that Jenkins had tried to deflect blame.
Jenkins was convicted of first-degree burglary, first-degree aggravated theft, first-degree theft, first-degree criminal mischief, second-degree theft, and the unauthorized use of a vehicle.
The Jackson County District Attorney’s Office said no further information about the burglary can be released at this stage because a co-defendant related to the incident has yet to appear in court.
The case was investigated by the Jackson County Sheriff’s Office, and the prosecution was handled by Deputy District Attorney Wade Hilsher.
