100 Month Sentence Issued In Home Invasion Case

Jeremy Lee Anderson received a 100-month sentence from Wasco County Circuit Court Judge Marion Weatherford after pleading guilty to first degree kidnapping, assault, and burglary charges connected to a home invasion in The Dalles in January 2021.  The pleas came during the second day of a jury trial, and the 50-year-old Anderson was sentenced the same day.  The home invasion occurred at The Dalles home of Donald Lewis on January 22, 2021.  Wasco County District Attorney Matthew Ellis says Anderson was one of two men that forced their way into the house, and pistol-whipped and beat Lewis. They then hog-tied him, while they removed his safe and valuables from the back bedrooms, and kicked him numerous times.  The men took over a hundred thousand dollars in cash, valuable coins, and jewelry, and left Lewis alone on the floor with his injuries.  Ellis said Lewis managed to get a knife out of a dresser drawer and cut himself free, before running to a neighbor’s house.  Three defendants have been found guilty in the home invasion, while the other person alleged to have entered the home, Jason McCollum is currently in federal custody on other charges, and his Wasco County trial is scheduled to begin in December.
