Sanchez ordered to pay over $6K for theft of CUC power

On or about October 2006 to November 2010, Sanchez, after having been disconnected by CUC, tampered with his meter such that power was restored illegally, the prosecution said.

Naraja sentenced Sanchez to six months imprisonment, all suspended.

Sanchez was placed on seven years probation.

He was ordered to pay a $750 fine within one year, a $25 court assessment fee payable within 30 days, and a $700 probation fee.

As part of the plea agreement, Sanchez will write a letter of apology to CUC and the people of the commonwealth, and a one-page letter detailing how this conviction affects his family.

Chief Prosecutor Michael Ernest represented the government while Chief Public Defender Adam Hardwicke served as counsel for Sanchez.
