Description
This is a sentence review case. Pursuant to a plea bargain agreement Joe Cowger pled guilty and was convicted on one count of grand theft. The prosecutor recommended a ten-year indeterminate sentence. However, the district court rejected that recommendation and imposed a fourteen-year indeterminate sentence. Cowger appeals, contending his sentence is excessive. In March, 1984, deputies from the Ada County Sheriff's Office were patrolling the Indian Lakes subdivision near Boise as a result of recent burglaries in the area. Early in the evening, officers noticed a truck drive by them. Within minutes the same truck came by again. Later the officers came upon the truck parked on the street. The officers checked the registration and found the truck was registered to Joe Cowger. The officers then checked Cowger's record and found it contained several offenses for theft. One officer stayed with the truck and the other officer began investigating some nearby houses. Soon one of the officers saw a flashlight shining in a house in a darkened area. As the officer investigated and approached the house, someone darted from a bush near the house. As the officer approached, the person jumped back ""into the corner of the house or behind a bush."" The officer ordered the person to ""freeze,"" and when the person did not, the officer grabbed him and pushed him to the ground. The person was Joe Cowger. Cowger was handcuffed and searched. In the search officers found a pry bar, gloves, a flashlight, and a screwdriver. In his pockets were various items of jewelry, including a ring and some necklaces. Other jewelry had fallen into the street when Cowger was seized by the officer. Cowger was subsequently charged with burglary and grand theft. As a result of a plea bargain agreement, Cowger pled guilty to one count of grand theft. He was sentenced to a fourteen-year indeterminate term.
