Repeat Offender Breaks Into Home Again | St. Louis News

A St. Louis jury convicted Kenneth Howard of first-degree burglary and second-degree property damage after he broke into a woman’s home while she was alone—despite a violent criminal history that includes a 1997 life sentence for murder and burglary. Witnesses saw him pacing, tampering with the door, and knocking over a flowerpot before forcing entry. Surveillance footage confirmed the incident.
