Jonesboro, AR – Jonesboro Right Now – Three men arrested in September for the late-night theft of an Arkansas State University-leased golf cart have pleaded guilty to reduced charges.

Caleb Deshaun Quinn, Robert Deshaun Selvy, and Taris Durell Randolph were originally facing Class D felony theft charges after a golf cart valued at $4,750 was stolen from the A-State Baseball Stadium parking lot on Sept. 14.

Court documents show that all three men entered negotiated guilty pleas to reduced Class A misdemeanor charges of theft of property ($1,000 or less) and first-degree criminal mischief.

Judge Randy Philhours sentenced Quinn and Randolph on Nov. 5, while Judge Scott Ellington sentenced Selvy on Oct. 26.

All three defendants received a 12-month Suspended Imposition of Sentence (SIS), meaning they will serve no active jail time provided they comply with court conditions.

The documents say they were ordered to pay joint and several restitutions of $1,954.28 to the Red Wolf Foundation to cover damages. Quinn and Randolph were also assessed $540 in court costs and fines, while Selvy was assessed $640.

As a special condition of their sentences, Selvy and Randolph are required to enroll in and complete a course to obtain their GED. All three men must also submit to warrantless searches and remain law-abiding for the duration of their 12-month suspension.

The charges stem from early morning surveillance footage on Sept. 14 that captured a black Chevrolet Malibu arriving at the Embassy Suites at 2:28 a.m.

The three suspects were seen walking along Red Wolf Boulevard toward Stallings Lane. By 3:37 a.m., the trio returned to campus and crossed the baseball stadium parking lot, where the golf cart—leased for the football season by the A-State Alumni Association from SS Custom Carts—was parked.

According to probable cause affidavits, Quinn drove the stolen cart off campus onto Red Wolf Boulevard. The Malibu was observed leaving the area shortly after, eventually meeting up with Quinn at the Maverick gas station at 2214 E. Johnson Ave.

At the gas station, one of the suspects left the Malibu and joined Quinn on the golf cart. The suspects then drove the cart through the Pines Apartments, cutting through a fence line to reach Sybel Cove.

Jonesboro police cameras later showed the cart at Cedar Heights Drive and Melrose Street with two suspects on it. The suspects traveled westbound onto Belt Street and turned south, eventually arriving at a home on State Street.

Officers recovered the stolen golf cart on the morning of Sept. 15, locating the defendants shortly after the cart was seen being driven in the 1800 block of Cedar Heights.
