CARBONDALE, Ill. (KFVS) – Javareus M. Briggs, 20, of Carbondale, Ill., plead guilty to one count of Burglary, a Class 2 Felony.  He was placed on probation for another burglary just days before this crime was committed, on September 7, 2020.

He was sentenced to serve six years in corrections, followed by two years of Mandatory Supervised Release.

The investigation of Briggs’ case was conducted by the Carbondale Police Department. Assistant State’s Attorney Jayson Clark was responsible for the successful prosecution of Briggs.
