After several delays in a hearing date, 24-year-old Theo Daulton is expected to enter into plea agreement later this month to charges connected to an April incident that led to a standoff with law officers in Garnett. Daulton was arraigned in August on charges of mistreatment of a dependent adult, criminal threat, criminal damage to property and interference with law officers. He has been in Anderson County Jail since his arrest. The incident stemmed from a domestic issue with his grandmother, Joy Daulton, at her residence on North Maple Street in Garnett on April 24th. That incident escalated into a standoff with police after Joy Daulton fled the residence, but Theo Daulton refused to come out when ordered to do so by police, resulting in a standoff that lasted several hours before he surrendered. Daulton’s plea hearing is set for December 16th at 9 in the morning in Anderson County District Court.
