Three people pleaded guilty Monday in connection with the theft of a guitar and $600 from Pizza Factory in Minden.
Amanada and Matthew Golden, both 19, and in Douglas County Jail for burglarizing a Gardnerville martial arts studio, pleaded guilty to theft in connection with the break-in.
The Pizza Factory burglary occurred two days before the break-in at Northwest Martial Arts Studio last October, the Goldens admitted to District Judge Michael Gibbons.
They face up to five years in prison and $10,000 fine at their sentencings May 4 for the new offense.
Phillip Harrison, 23, of Minden, pleaded guilty to attempted grand theft. He faces four years in prison and a $5,000 fine if the crime is treated as a felony.
Harrison also could be sentenced to a gross misdemeanor which carries up to one year in Douglas County Jail and a $2,000 fine or probation.
The codefendants are responsible for restitution which totals under $1,000.
Addressing the Goldens, Gibbons told the couple they now have two felonies on their records and could be subject to Nevada's habitual criminal status if they are convicted of a third.
"Just because you got probation on the first case doesn't mean you will this time," Gibbons said.
In the Northwest Martial Arts break-in, Gibbons sentenced the husband and wife to five years probation that includes jail time.
The Goldens admitted they entered Pizza Factory after hours through a back door with a broken lock. Matthew Golden said he removed money from the cash register. Amanda Golden said she took the guitar from the owner's office and a tip jar.
Harrison said he was outside the restaurant serving as lookout.
"I did help them," he said. "I was just the lookout to make sure no one was coming. I wasn't thinking at the time. They offered me money and I told them I didn't want it."
