Batavia Eagle Scout pleads guilty to criminal trespass for Harvester break-in

By Howard B. Owens

Justin Fay, who was an Eagle Scout, honor roll student and honor society scholar in college, pleaded guilty today to one count of misdemeanor criminal trespass for breaking into the Harvester Center one rainy Saturday night in late July.

Now a Rochester resident, Fay told Judge Robert Balbick in City Court that he did enter the Harvester Center without permission.

He had been facing a burglary charge.

Fay will be sentenced after the Monroe County Probation Department completes a pre-sentencing review.

We have no information at this time on his co-defendants, William F. Wernert III and Cory C. Pickering.
