Two Charged in Muskego Burglary

A Cudahy man is facing charges after he and a Greenfield man broke into his mother’s Muskego home to steal jewelry so they could buy heroin.

Jason G. Dobson, 33, of Cudahy, and Tyler J. Safford, 21, of Greenfield, were charged in Waukesha County Circuit Court Thursday with one count of burglary. If convicted, they each face up to 12 ½ years in prison and $25,000 in fines.

According to the criminal complaint:

On Oct. 23, Dobson and Safford broke into his mother’s home in the S6600 block of Gold Drive while she was out of town. He first went to a neighbor’s home to get the garage code, but the neighbor was instructed to not give out the code to him, so Dobson went back to the house and kicked in a service door.

The two men then took various jewelry items from the home and sold some of them to get money so they could buy heroin.

The men will make their initial appearance in court Feb. 6.
