Burglary Sentence Over Sexual Assault Charges

Jose Dela Garza got 25 years for burglary—not the attempted assault he was originally charged with. The case stemmed from a June break-in where he allegedly entered a woman’s apartment while she slept; surveillance caught him moving through the living room. Though initially charged with two counts of attempted sexual assault, those charges were dropped as part of a plea deal. The burglary charge stuck, and the court deemed his intent to commit assault during the break-in enough to justify the massive sentence.
