Eugene Reagan "Trey" Britt, co-owner of Legends Bar and Grill, was banished from Bulloch County for the entire length of his probationary period, according to published reports. This following his guilty plea for burglary in a Bulloch County Superior Court hearing that took place Thursday, according to reports.

The sentence included 10 years, of which 180-240 days will be served in jail, and the rest probated. Also included in the sentence were $7,500 in fines plus fees, according to reports.

If Britt is found to be in Bulloch county at any time while carrying out this sentence, he will be arrested, Sgt. Wendell Bunch of the GSU Police Department said.

"If he is found in Bulloch county at any time he is arrested and put in jail," Bunch said. "Then he would face another charge—violation of sentencing—and would go to court again."

Trey Britt declined to comment on the situation. Britt and the three other men involved (William David Powell, Rocky Nelson Duncan Jr. and Eric Franklin Squires) were all sentenced in the hearing, according to published reports.
