WICHITA, KAN. – A Kansas man who pleaded guilty to robbing a 65-year-old woman heading to prison for one count of robbery and two counts of aggravated assault.
A Judge sentenced Curlie Guiden, 53 of Wichita, to just over 9-years in prison, according to Sedgwick County District Attorney Marc Bennett.
According to testimony, on the afternoon of August 11, 2019, a woman returned to her home in the 500 block of east Dewey in Wichita to find her back door open and Guiden standing in the doorway holding a pillow case.
Guiden pushed the victim down and drove off in her car, nearly striking her. Guiden then drove in a big circle and almost hit her a second time. The woman's car was later recovered in a nearby parking lot.
Investigators took photographs and collected latent prints for analysis. The prints were analyzed and found to match Guiden.
Guiden will be placed on 24 months post-release after he completes his prison sentence, according to the district attorney.
