A burglar who allegedly followed a La Jolla woman home from a beach party and stole some property was sentenced Dec. 10 to one year in jail and three years probation. His friend is awaiting a Feb. 10 trial on a charge of sexually assaulting the woman in her bed. Xavzier Pernell Paschal, 21, of San Diego, is serving his sentence at the George Bailey Detention Facility and sheriff’s officials said his release is set Feb. 8. He received credit for four months he has already served since his arrest on Aug. 11. Paschal allegedly took the woman’s cell phone, computer and iPod, but those items were recovered by a San Diego police officer who pulled over a vehicle on Nautilus Avenue minutes later after she called 911. San Diego Superior Court Judge Charles Gill fined Paschal about $1,000 and ordered that he not contact the victim. Paschal pleaded guilty Nov. 2 to burglary and receiving stolen property. No sex charges were filed against him. Bryan Patrick Silva, 21, has pleaded not guilty to sexual assault upon an unconscious person and sexual battery. The 22-year-old victim told police she woke up at 4 a.m. and discovered a hooded man touching her. She screamed and both men fled the residence. Silva, of San Diego, remains free on $50,000 bond. If convicted, Silva faces nine years in prison.
