Keaton William Kukola, 23, of Sumpter Township, took a plea deal before 34th District Court Judge Brian A. Oakley on April 26.
He pled guilty to new charges of disorderly conduct and retail fraud, both 93-day misdemeanors, and the original felony charges of unarmed robbery at Walmart and possession or sale of a Taser on Nov. 18 were dismissed.
He told Judge Oakley that he was on drugs and he got caught at Walmart on Belleville Road trying to steal.
He told the judge that he had one home invasion on his record and he was on probation. He said he turned himself in to the county.
Kukola said he went to Dawn Farms for treatment and goes to Narcotics Anonymous five times a week and Alcoholics Anonymous. He has been testing clean since Jan. 15, he said. He said his job at Total Landscaping has given him time to get this settled.
Judge Oakley asked why he was “four months in the wind” and he said he was trying to get his life together.
Kukola’s court-appointed attorney Steven Menken asked for immediate sentencing and pointed out his client is on probation for three years.
Judge Oakley credited him 30 days and put him on non-reporting probation.
