Suspect in Shamus T Bones embezzlement pleads no contest

Malcolm Carpenter agreed to pay full restitution to Shamus T-Bones in monthly payments of $2,000. The The total amount owed is $44, 000.

 This offer and resolution was being debated for three weeks, according to Shamus'  Chris Barry. DDA Roger Rees consulted with Malcom Carpenter's attorney Michael Robinson and Barry during court this afternoon until they arrived at the resolution. Barry said he was happy with the result as long as he is paid in full.

The plea had conditions of probation and if restitution is made in full, the felony charge will be reduced to a misdemeanor. The sentencing will take place on Oct 22 at 2 p.m. after probation has a chance to weigh-in.

Mr. Robinson requested that his client not be incarcerated but allowed community service so he could work and pay restitution and also because he is a single parent.
