01/21/14 On Sunday, January 19th at 12:24 P.M. Plymouth Police Officer John Weir was dispatched to 421 Gilmore Street in reference to a break-in and theft. Arriving at the residence, Officer Weir spoke to the homeowner who said the family had left for church about 10:30 A.M. and return just after noon. As they arrived back home the homeowner walked in and found her window open and her house in disarray.
Officer Weir contacted Detective Cox to make the scene and an investigation was started and by late evening, two juvenile suspects were found along with most of the property being recovered.
Readers are reminded that charging information supported by an affidavit of probable cause is a mere allegation that a crime has been committed and that there is only probable cause to believe a crime has been committed. They are presumed innocent throughout the proceedings and are entitled to be represented by counsel and entitled to a trial by jury at which the State is obligated to provide proof beyond a reasonable doubt before a judgment of guilt may be made.
