Rickardo Bussawan pleaded guilty to three counts of aggravated robbery following the attack on James and Elizabeth Lewis on April 6. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Court records show that Bussawan, along with two accomplices, tied up the victims and their friend with duct tape before stealing valuables including $10,000 worth of jewelry, electronic devices, and cash.<\/p>

The co-accused, Delon Wills and Michael Carr, will appear in court on February 3 to set trial dates. Bussawan’s sentence will run concurrently, with credit for time served.<\/p>
