A Sedalia man on parole for burglary and has been charged with another felony for allegedly burglarizing a Pettis County residence in July is due in court this week.

According to a Pettis County deputy’s report, he responded to the report of somebody burglarizing a residence on Harding Road, and the resident said items taken included two firearms and a jewelry box.

The alleged victim said a male subject brought in items to a jewelry store on July 12 and provided identification as Joseph Matthew Edwards. Authorities traced him by using the tags on the car he was driving.

Court documents say Edwards is charged with a felony for first-degree burglary. Bond remains at $25,000 cash or surety. A motion for bond reduction was denied by the court.

Edwards was arraigned on July 20. His next hearing is scheduled for 1:30 p.m. Tuesday, September 21, at Pettis County Circuit Court.
