A Holly resident who admitted robbing three long guns from a Byron resident, only to have his guilty plea hit a snag on May 10, completed the process this morning.
In the previous court appearance for Darrell Bruce Reid, 45, of 4 N. Main St., the prosecution presented a document for a previous felony conviction that turned out to be beyond the range, under New York State law, as a predicate felony for sentencing purposes.
But Assistant District Attorney Kevin Finnell presented proof of another felony conviction for Reid in Butte, SD, in which Reid stole a pickup truck in 2000 and was convicted of grand theft.
After confirming that with Reid, Judge Robert C. Noonan accepted it as a second felony conviction and set sentencing for 9 a.m., June 23.
Reid previously pled guilty to assault, 2nd, for robbing a Byron man of his guns last month.
