Jeremy Hoden Changes His Plea
A Sheffield teenager accused of beating up an elderly woman and stealing her car surprised his lawyer, and the district attorney, by changing his plea.
Jeremy Hoden has been charged with assault and burglary for breaking into the home of 77-year-old Irene Rice in August of last year, beating her and stealing her car and cash.
Hoden had worked out a plea agreement, and was expected to plead guilty but, instead, pleaded not guilty. The burglary charge had been reduced to criminal trespass in the plea deal, but was re-instated after Hoden changed his plea. He pleaded guilty to the burglary charge.
Hoden, who was 17 at the time of the incident, was charged as an adult due to the severity of the crimes.
