Habitual Auto Burglar sentenced in thirteen counts of Auto Burglary and one count of a Possession of a Firearm by a Felon

Greenwood, MS: In Leflore County Circuit Court, Greenville native, Isiah Hall, pled guilty to thirteen (13) counts of automobile burglary and one count of possession of a firearm by a convicted felon. Hall was indicted for the fourteen (14) different charges as a Habitual Offender by the January 2018 grand jury.

The Leflore County Sheriff’s Department thoroughly investigated reports of auto burglaries in the Leflore County area. After being stopped for reckless driving and escaping on foot, Leflore County Sheriff deputies not only pursued and located Hall, but they also discovered items that had been stolen from the cars earlier in the day. Hall had previously convicted of automobile burglary, credit card fraud, and taking possession of taking a motor vehicle.

Under Mississippi law, burglary of an automobile carries a maximum penalty of seven (7) years served in the Mississippi Department of Corrections. As a Habitual Offender, the defendant is required to serve the maximum penalty for the crime with which he is sentenced. In addition, the sentence shall not be reduced or suspended nor shall the defendant be eligible for parole or probation.

Based on Hall’s priors and the proof of the fourteen different crimes, Senior Circuit Judge Ashley Hines sentenced Hall to serve a total of twenty-eight (28) years in the Mississippi Department of Corrections followed by five (5) years on Post Release Supervision.

Judicial Process

Citizen's Involvement in the criminal justice system typically begins with them being a victim, witness, or defendant of a crime. Arrests are made generally by a judge-issued warrant or by a police officer observing a crime in process. Law enforcement may also arrest someone if it has probable cause to believe the person committed a criminal offense. When individuals are arrested they are routinely advised of their Miranda Rights upon arrest, advising them that they have the right to remain silent and that anything they say will be used against them in court. On being questioned, defendants have the right to have their attorney present or to have one appointed if they are indigent.

Felony defendants appear at a first appearance and have the charges reviewed. A judge will inquire if the defendant has an attorney. If low income, the defendant may qualify for a court-appointed lawyer. No plea is entered at this time unless the defendant wishes to plead guilty or waives indictment and has an attorney present. All felony cases are presented to a grand jury in the county that the crime was committed. In the State of Mississippi, only a grand jury has the authority to indict an individual for a felony offense and require them to stand trial for the charges alleged in an affidavit and indictment.

If an indictment is issued, the defendant is bound over to stand trial or enter a guilty plea to the crimes alleged. When a criminal trial occurs all 12 jurors must find the defendant guilty beyond a reasonable doubt. Sentences are decided by Circuit Court Judges in all criminal matters. In most cases a recommendation is made regarding imprisonment, probation, fines and restitution.
