Probation was revoked for a man who was the subject of a manhunt in South Lake Tahoe last spring.
Gustavo Candelario, 47, admitted on Oct. 11 that he both left the state without permission and was convicted of another crime in El Dorado County in Douglas County District Court.
Candelario was sentenced to 20-60 months in prison in March 2019 after he admitted selling heroin and methamphetamine at a Stateline Casino in July 2018.
Candelario told District Judge Tod Young that he was proud he’d remained sober since his arrest.
He was the subject of a social media post by South Lake Tahoe Police in April that included his photo from security footage showing him using a credit card allegedly stolen by Logan Matthew Schwartz, 34.
“You can’t commit crimes while you’re on probation and expect to be put back on probation,” Young said.
Candelario was given credit for 150 days time served.
Schwartz has four felony convictions over the course of 10 years in Douglas County, including two burglaries.
