The suspect in a 2011 burglary and attempted robbery on Southwind Road in Warren County was convicted by a jury Sept. 19.

After a two-day trial, jurors found Johnathan S. Caffey, 32, guilty of second-degree burglary and first-degree attempted robbery. He now faces up to 25 years in prison as he awaits sentencing by Associate Circuit Judge David Tobben.

Caffey, who has an address in St. Charles, allegedly entered the home of an acquaintance Oct. 1, 2011, and threatened the resident with a gun, authorities said.

When the resident came home after 10 p.m., Caffey, wearing a black mask, allegedly held a gun to the resident’s head and demanded money, then struck the resident with the gun. During an ensuing struggle, another person who had come in with the resident removed the mask from the suspect, who the resident recognized as Caffey.

Jurors heard evidence in the case Sept. 18 and 19 last week. The jury spent more than five hours in deliberation Tuesday, Sept. 19, returning at 8 p.m. to deliver the guilty verdict. Caffey will be sentenced at a hearing Nov. 30 at the Warren County Circuit Court.

Court records show Caffey was first charged with the crimes in November 2011. Over the course of several years, his case was assigned to several different judges, before being given to Judge Tobben to preside over in Warren County. Tobben is an associate circuit judge in Franklin County.

The attempted robbery charge against Caffey is a Class B felony punishable by five to 15 years in prison; the burglary charge is a Class C felony that could add three to 10 years to Caffey’s sentence. He remains free on bond until he is sentenced, according to court records.
