A man arrested in August 2016 after being linked to several burglaries, including one in which the homeowner saw the suspects on a webcam, was sentenced in Juneau Superior Court recently.
Kelly Ray Crowder, 30, was sentenced to two years in prison after he pleaded guilty to first-degree burglary and second-degree theft in connection with the Aug. 10, 2016 burglaries. He also was convicted of a probation violation in connection with a May 23, 2016 incident and must serve 23 months in prison consecutive to the other prison term.
Crowder was arrested after the Juneau Police Department received three separate reports of burglaries that occurred within a short time period of each other on Aug. 10, 2016.
In the first incident, a woman reported a burglary in progress in the 10000 block of Glacier Highway; the suspect had entered the residence by breaking the front door, and was in the kitchen when confronted by the caller. He fled from the residence prior to officers arriving.
Less than an hour later, a man reported a burglary in progress at his residence in the 12000 block of Glacier Highway. The resident was viewing a remote web camera and observed subjects he did not recognize in his residence. Multiple officers responded to the area and it was established that the suspects, who got in through a window, were no longer in the residence.
A third burglary was reported that evening in the 17000 block of Andreanoff Road, with multiple animal hides valued at about $4,000 stolen. The front door to the residence had been damaged and repair costs were estimated at about $3,000.
Thomas Schauwecker subsequently was arrested in connection with the burglaries and Crowder was identified as a second suspect. Crowder also had an outstanding Alaska State Trooper felony warrant charging failure to comply with probation on original charges of second-degree theft and fourth-degree misconduct involving controlled substance.
