PORTLAND, Ore. (KOIN) — The homeless man who stole a wedding ring and wallet from a MAX stabbing victim in May 2017 was sentenced to another 20 days in jail.

George Elwood Tschaggeny appeared in court on Monday for a probation violation hearing.

The Multnomah County District Attorney’s office petitioned that the probation be terminated and Tschaggeny should be sentenced to prison. The DA’s office requested a 22-month prison sentence with a year of post-prison supervision. However, the judge ruled that Tschaggeny would remain on probation and ordered he serve 20 days in jail.

In November 2017, Tschaggeny was sentenced to 13 months in prison with credit for time served and five years probation.

He admitted to taking the items from Ricky Best after he was stabbed to death on May 26, 2017. He pleaded guilty to several counts, including identity theft and tampering with physical evidence.

The 51-year-old was caught on video carrying Best’s black backpack off of the MAX train and was wearing Best’s wedding ring when he was arrested about 5 days after the attack.

A tip from a Domino’s Pizza worker led police to the homeless camp where Tschaggeny lived off Northeast Halsey Street under the Cesar E. Chavez overpass along I-84.
