Ten different businesses have been burglarized 11 different times since June and the Batavia police are looking for the public's help is identifying the suspects.

Det. Charles Dudek released the video posted above in the hope that it might lead to more information about the suspects seen in the video.

The video was taken by surveillance camera at Batavia's Original, 500 E. Main St., Batavia, on Aug. 30. Batavia's Original has been hit twice in the past couple of months.

The same two suspects are believed to have burglarized Ficarella's Pizzeria in late August.

A witness reportedly spotted the suspects at about 4 a.m. leaving Ficarella's without their masks or hoods on.

The suspects are identified as white males in their late teens or early 20s. Both are about 5'8" to 5'9" tall. One suspect is described as stocky with short blond hair and a light complexion. The other suspect is thinner with short dark hair.

The string of burglaries dates back to June 2, when Neptune's Garden was hit.

In four cases, safes were stolen, or the safe was opened at the business and in one case the suspects were unable to either open or take the safe.

Anyone with information that could aid in the investigation should call the confidential tip line at 345-6370 or the Batavia PD at 345-6350.

Defense attorney Brian Degnan admitted in court today that he was surprised to learn less than an hour before his client was scheduled to be sentenced on a burglary charge, that the client didn't understand one of Judge Robert Noonan's questions when he entered a guilty plea July 15.

The question, one asked of every defendant about to enter a guilty plea: "Have you consumed any drugs or alcohol today?"

Ricky L. Miller said he had not, but today, Miller told Degnan that he was actually on prescribed painkillers when he entered his guilty plea and didn't understand what he was doing.

Miller was an inmate in the Genesee County Jail on July 15 and any medication he received would have been administered by jail staff.

The drugs supposedly taken by Miller on July 15 where Neurontin and Tramadol.

Degnan asked for an adjournment of the scheduled sentencing to give him time to research the veracity of his client's claim and whether the allegedly prescribed painkillers could alter his judgment.

"We should not be adjourning a sentencing every time a defendant has a change of heart," said District Attorney Lawrence Friedman.

Friedman characterized Miller's new statements as "an incredible claim that he lied under oath about being on drugs."

Degnan tried to argue that perhaps his client didn't understand the question because he only has an eighth-grade education, but Noonan wasn't buying it.

When Noonan asked if Miller had taken the prescribed medications today, Miller said he had.

"So he has enough of an education to understand what I'm asking him while on drugs today, but not when he entered his guilty plea?" Noonan asked.

He ordered a short recess so Friedman could contact the jail and get information on what drugs Miller may have consumed the day he entered his guilty plea.

About 30 minutes later, Miller's case was recalled and Friedman informed Noonan that on July 15, Miller had not yet been prescribed Neurontin, and about two weeks before the hearing, Miller's dosage of Tramadol had been reduced.

"He was taking it for knee pain," Friedman said. "I'm told it's no more powerful than Motrin tablets and it's not a controlled substance."

Noonan denied Degnan's motion for an adjournment and proceeded with sentencing.

On one count of burglary, 2nd, Miller was given five years in prison, and on one count of possession of a forged instrument, Miller was given three and a half to seven years in prison, to be served concurrently.

"Sir, you have, for a 29-year-old man, you have a horrible record," Noonan said. "You don't seem to have any respect for anybody's else's property. It's important that you be removed from society for a long period of time."

A Massachusetts man will serve two consecutive six-year prison terms for having sex with two 14-year-old girls, one of whom he originally met while she was traveling with her mother in Florida.

Raymond E. Allard, 27, who admitted to two counts of second-degree rape on July 15, told Judge Robert C. Noonan today that he wasn't the kind of person who had sex with children. While Allard has convictions in Florida for burglary and grand larceny, he's never faced sex-crime accusations before.

"I was foolish and I'm willing to face whatever penalty is coming to me for my behavior," Allard said. "I'm sorry to the girls. I'm sorry to the families. I'm sorry to the court. I'm sorry to myself."

Noonan wasn't sympathetic.

"You are a child rapist, a serial child rapist," Noonan said. "For you to stand here and say you're not that kind of person -- you are exactly that kind of person. You are the kind of person who can't be trusted to be in the presence of another child ever again and it's my job to put you away for as long as I can."

Allard was originally indicted on 64 charges of rape, 2nd, and criminal sexual act, 2nd, and agreed to a plea guilty on two counts in exchange for capping his sentence at 12-years maximum.

He'll be on probation for 10 years when he's released from prison.

Allard was indicted in May, accused of having sex with two 14-year-old girls in November and December of 2010.

According to reports at the time, Allard met the mother of one of the girls while in Florida and followed her and her daughter back to Oakfield.

"The circumstances of this case clearly indicated that Mr. Allard is a predator of young girls," Assistant District Attorney Will Zickl said. "His relationsip with one of the victims began outside of New York State as the result of a chance meeting and was continued when Mr. Allard decided to come to this area and continue his grooming of this child for his own sexual purposes."

Zickl said Allard's statements in the pre-sentence investigation further implicated Allard as depraved.

Allard allegedly described one of the victims as "sexually aggressive" and an "overwhelming sexual creature."

"This is Mr. Allard's feeble and feckless attempt to put himself in the best possible light," Zickl said. "I would submit that it puts him in an even worse light because he's blaming a 14-year-old girl for his predation on her."

The mother of one of the girls spoke and said that Allard's actions caused a lot of damage to her relationship with her daughter and they've never really talked about what happened. She said all she knew was what she read in her journals before her daughter was placed in a foster home.

"I'm very angry, very hurt and very distraught about what happened to my daughter," the woman said. "He's done a lot of damage to my family. I don't think he should ever be around children again."

A 21-year-old Batavia man originally accused of rape with a possible sentence of 25 years in prison, received a seven-year sentence today on a reduced charge of sexual abuse.

Patrick J. Donahue, of 44 Williams St., Batavia, was arrested in January and accused of raping a 30-year-old woman at a residence on Walnut Street.

In July, Donahue accepted a plea reducing the charge to sexual abuse.

In court today, Judge Robert Noonan told Donahue his crime was "a slight grade below murder."

Once released, Donahue will spend 10 years on probation.

A person is reportedly unconscious after being assaulted by an assailant at the Crooked Creek Driving Range on Sumner Road, Darien.

The location is near Darien Lake Performing Arts Center where there is a Toby Keith concert tonight.

Law enforcement and Darien fire and ambulance in route.

Law enforcement is called to Darien Lake Theme Park in response to a complaint of a patron cutting a stuffed animal at a ring-toss game on the Midway. The stuffing is supposedly "all over the Midway" and the man refuses to heed the directives of security.

As many as 50 people are said to be involved.

Sheriff's deputies and State Troopers responding.

The Barker Brothers, jailed in June on drug charges, are accused of using their time behind bars to plot murder.

The brothers, Derick, at left, and Justin, allegedly arranged for a friend from Georgia to travel to New York and snuff out an unidentified target. But when the would-be killer couldn't make the trip, the brothers allegedly asked another person to do the deed.

According to the Genesee County Sheriff's Office, money changed hands and an agreement was reached.

The potential target, who was notified by law enforcement about the plot, was never in danger of harm, according to the Sheriff's Office.

Derick W. Barker, 26, of Tera Boulevard, Jonesboro, Ga., and Justin Z. Barker, 22, of North Lyon Street, Batavia, where both charged with one count of conspiracy in the second degree.

The investigation into the alleged conspiracy began two months ago, according to the news release.

Separate from the conspiracy investigation, Justin Barker is also charged with 303 counts of aggravated harassment, 2nd, and one count of criminal contempt, 1st.

Justin is accused of contacting a person protected by court order 303 times by telephone and U.S. Mail between June 1 and Aug. 31.

The order of protection was issued by Justice Thomas Graham in Oakfield Town Court.

Justin is also charged with three counts of forgery and three counts of offering a false instrument for filing, 1st.

Justin and Derick were arraigned in Batavia City Court and jailed without bail.

The Barker Brothers made news in June when police were called to a local hotel where a trio of young men were accused of not paying their bill and refusing to leave a hotel room.

Derick reportedly fled the hotel and was eventually flushed out of a farm field on the opposite side of the Thruway.

The drug charges that put them in the Genesee County Jail in the first place, along with other charges, stemmed from the June 1 incident.
