SAGINAW, MI — One of the four men accused of entering a North Side Saginaw home in December and robbing the family of Christmas presents and marijuana will spend more than 13 years in prison.

Saginaw County Circuit Judge Janet M. Boes on Tuesday, July 9, sentenced Gregory J. Gilyard to 11 years and eight months to 30 years in prison for three felonies.

Boes also sentenced Gilyard, 21, to the mandatory two-year prison term for possessing a firearm during the commission of a felony. Gilyard must first that sentence, for which he received 160 days credit, or more than five months.

Gilyard in May pleaded no contest to assault with intent to murder, armed robbery, conspiring to commit armed robbery, and the felony firearm charge in connection with a Dec. 18 incident at 403 N. 22nd south of Wadsworth.

In exchange for the plea, prosecutors dropped 20 additional felonies that Gilyard faced in that incident as well as six felonies that Gilyard faced in connection with an April 27, 2010, home invasion at 507 N. Granger on Saginaw's West Side.

In relation to the December incident, police have said Gilyard and others spoke with Christopher Mulligan, a man in his early 20s, at a nearby convenience store. The men asked Mulligan if he had any marijuana for sale, and Mulligan said he did and told the men to come to his house, police said.

Instead of arriving for a marijuana purchase, however, the men entered the home to rob Mulligan, his mother, his sister, his brother, and his brother's girlfriend, police said. As the men entered with force, Mulligan moved quickly to stand between the men and his mother, and Gilyard shot him in the stomach, police said.

Gilyard then pointed the gun at the others, and the mother and Mulligan's sister, who was 13, ran to the bathroom, police said. Gilyard fired multiple shots into the bathroom door, police said.

The men stole the family's Christmas presents as well as Mulligan's marijuana and light fixtures, Gilyard's arrest warrant alleges. The men also stole cellphones.

In that incident, prosecutors dropped two additional assault with intent to murder charges as well as four counts of armed robbery, three counts of unlawful imprisonment, and 11 counts of possessing a firearm during the commission of a felony.

In relation to the 2010 home invasion case, prosecutors will drop charges of armed robbery, first-degree home invasion, separate counts of conspiring to commit both of those crimes, and two felony firearm charges. Charles R. Jones Jr. in October 2011 was sentenced to 17 to 32 years in prison for 24 felonies in the incident.

When he accepted the plea agreement in May, Gilyard acknowledged his involvement in the 2010 incident.
