Elizabeth Kay Stump

WARSAW — A plea agreement was entered this morning, Thursday, Nov. 5, by Elizabeth K. Stump, 33, 920 Anchorage Road, Warsaw, in four cases. She plead guilty to domestic battery in the presence of a child under the age of 16, a class D felony and theft, enhanced to a level 6 felony. The hearing was held in Kosciusko Superior Court 1.

Should the plea agreement be accepted, charge of assisting a criminal, three theft charges and battery with moderate bodily injury, would be dismissed.

The charges she has plead guilty to stem from Jan 2, 2014 and July 26, 2015.

In 2014 she was arrested on two counts of domestic battery, a class D felony and a class A misdemeanor. Stump had been given a pre-trial diversion agreement on March 25, 2014. However, following violation of that diversion agreement, charges were re-instated.

She was arrested in March 2015 on charges of assisting a criminal, a level 6 felony, and theft, a class A misdemeanor. In July 2015 she was arrested for battery, causing moderate bodily injury, a level 6 felony; and in August 2015, she was arrested for theft, a class A misdemeanor, but it was enhanced to a level 6 felony, due to a previous conviction of conversion.

She will return to court at 9 a.m. Thursday, Dec. 3, to learn if the courts have accepted the agreement and for sentencing.
