Can't set bail yet for 'late show' intruder

Tuesday, October 27, 2009

The woman found watching TV in a stranger's home on Saturday made her first appearance on burglary charges yesterday, but her bail could not be set due to prior criminal charges that are pending, officials said.

Crystal Kelly, 30, of Gautier Avenue, appeared in Central Judicial Processing Court in Jersey City yesterday. Judge Richard Nieto said bail would have to be set in Superior Court.

At the time of the incident on Danforth Avenue at 1:40 a.m. Saturday, Kelly was free on $20,000 bail on charges of receiving stolen property, having a fake auto insurance card and hindering apprehension. That case is being heard by Hudson County Superior Court Judge Sheila Venable.

Last November, Kelly was sentenced to two years probation after being convicted of burglary, DeFazio said.

On Saturday, police were called to the Danforth Avenue home and found Kelly walking down the steps as the 56-year-old resident and his wife told officers she had broken in and attacked them, police said.

The husband, who had scratch marks on his chest and bruises on his face, told police his 16-year-old heard someone in the house and when he went downstairs he found Kelly in the living room watching television.
