Five teenagers from Nixa who were facing a combined 49 felony and misdemeanor charges for a crime spree last summer in Christian County have pleaded guilty.
Special prosecutor Bert Twibell says the boys left a car burned and property damage that amounted to about $12,600 in their destructive path. Twibell was appointed special prosecutor because on the the teenagers charged was Dustin Cleek, the son of Christian County Prosecutor Ron Cleek.
Twibell says he offered the teens two offers in exchange for their guilty pleas. Josiah Babin, Andrew Bagwell, James Bagwell and Coleman Walker took the first option. In exchange for pleading guilty to two felonies, those four boys will serve 10 days in jail, must make full restitution to the victims, complete 500 hours of community service and serve five years of unsupervised probation.
Dustin Cleek, who plead guilty to four misdemeanors, was sentenced today to 10 days behind bars. He also must make full restitution to the victims, complete 500 hours of community service and was placed on two years unsupervised probation. He has also agreed to serve at least three years in the military.
If the teens successfully complete their sentences, their convictions could be expunged from their record.
Formal sentencing for the Babin, the Bagwell's and Walker is set for July 16.
