A young man from Beloit is sentenced to four years of probation in connection with a Janesville robbery.
18-year-old Jaden C. Fair is accused of picking up an acquaintance in Janesville on May 21st and then robbing them at gun point.
As part of a plea agreement, Fair pleaded guilty to armed robbery, possession with intent to deliver 200 or fewer grams of marijuana, felony theft and six misdemeanors.
The prosecution and defense recommended three years of probation, to include six months in jail. Judge Karl Hanson went along with the recommendations, but upped the probation period to four years.
The armed-robbery charge be held open until Fair completes probation. If he does so without violating the rules, the charge would be dismissed. Also, the marijuana-trafficking and felony theft charges would be wiped off his record.
