CIRCUIT COURT: Elkhart man pleads guilty to battery, burlgary Original
GOSHEN — An Elkhart man accused of domestic battery and burglary pleaded guilty during Thursday’s court proceedings. According to a probable cause affidavit, Cristian Gomez Benitez, 23, Elkhart, violated a restraining order against his former partner, with whom he has two children, on March 24.
Burglary suspect’s plea agreement rejected by Elkhart County judge
A burglary suspect, Jack Byrer, entered a plea agreement on Thursday during circuit court. Byrer has been hoping to come to an agreement quickly, but Judge Michael Christofeno said he could not accept the terms in his plea agreement filed last week. Byrer was arrested in February for a 2022 burglary at a New Paris storage unit, and he filed a motion for speedy trial due to currently being incarcerated at Westville Correctional Facility.
