Winokur] on County Road in the town of Stamford, Vermont.”
“The initial findings indicated that several bottles of alcohol were taken from within the residence while the homeowners were not present,” The VSP explained. “As a result of an investigation that included surveillance videos and statements, probable cause was found to charge Ezra M. Miller with the offense of felony burglary into an unoccupied dwelling.”

He pleaded not guilty to the one count “burglary into an occupied dwelling” One count “petit larceny $900 or less”These two charges carried a total maximum penalty of 26 years behind bars, and more than $2,000 in fines.

“As part of the plea agreement here, the state will dismiss without prejudice counts 1 and 2, of the burglary and petit larceny,” Judge McDonald-Cady explained to Miller – who she addressed as “Mx. Miller” on account of the actor’s non-binary identity – on Friday morning.
“You’ll be on administrative probation for one year for the unlawful trespass that you’ll be pleading guilty to,” She continued. “If you complete that probation successfully and the probation is closed and discharged, count 1 will remain dismissed.”
”However, if there’s a violation of probation that was filed that a court found probable cause for, the state could refile the count 1 burglary,” the Judge concluded. “The conditions are about mental health, substance-free living and no contact with Mr. Winokur.”

Speaking on behalf of Winokur, Vermont Deputy State Attorney Alexander Burke of the Bennington State Attorney’s Office asserted that the plaintiff “is in support of this resolution,” as “it protects his privacy interest without having to go forward with trial as well insures continued mental health treatment for the defendant.”
”It essentially acts as a deferred sentence on the felony matter, which was the design of the agreement which will continue to allow the defendant to engage in his employment that they choose to engage in.”
