Damron has pleaded guilty to first-degree burglary. The prosecution has agreed to a 10-year sentence. Formal sentencing will be Sept. 11.
A third trial was set to start Thursday in Dixon, where the case had been moved due to publicity in The Crittenden Press following two previous trials. A mistrial was declared in the first trial then Damron was found guilty and sentenced to 70 years in the second trial last summer. However, that verdict was overturned upon appeal.
