LIVINGSTON COUNTY – A young man who apparently got himself in a bad place with drugs pled guilty on Thursday to two thefts, one from an ex girlfriend from years ago and the other from his own parents in Livonia.

Anthony Farley, 24, pled guilty to Attempted Burglary in the Second Degree and Grand Larceny in the Fourth Degree following confessions to breaking into the girlfriend’s house in Springwater looking for something to steal, and stealing jewelry from his parents’ home in Livonia.

“Basically everyone we’ve talked to over the course of this investigation has said he’s a good kid who got into drugs in a bad way,” said Assistant District Attorney Justin Hill. “He eventually admitted to both incidents, and they were handled together as one package.”

Farley was sentenced to six months in the Livingston County Jail plus five years of probation. The judge warned him that if he violates the terms of his probation, he will go to prison for 2 1/3 to 7 years.
