Accused home invaders convicted of all charges
DAYTON — Two men charged with several felonies in connection with a Huber Heights home invasion, in which a man was shot in the groin, were convicted of all indicted charges on Monday, Feb. 8, the day they were to go to trial.
Demetrius Ewing, 30, pleaded guilty to two counts of aggravated burglary, four counts of kidnapping, five counts of aggravated robbery, two counts of felonious assault, three counts of assault and one count of being a felon in possession of a weapon.
Anthony Wayne Jones, 53, pleaded no contest to the same charges, as well as one count of tampering with evidence.
Montgomery County Common Pleas Judge Frances E. McGee, accepted the pleas found them guilty of all charges. She set sentencing for Feb. 23.
According to prosecutors, both men face a minimum of nine years in prison. For Ewing, the maximum would be more than 100 years in prison. Prosecutors and defense attorneys made no agreement on length of sentence, leaving that issue to McGee’s discretion.
The charges concern a Feb. 22, 2009 robbery at 5483 Misty Lane. According to police reports, the two men entered an apartment there through a back door while three people were in the residence. A woman’s wrists were bound, a man was put in a closet with the door tied shut and a second man handcuffed and shot in the groin area. Property was allegedly stolen from the apartment and the victims told police they did not know their attackers.
Ewing and Jones have remained in the Montgomery County Jail since their arrests.
