BEXAR COUNTY, Texas – A Bexar County man who fled the state while out on bond earlier this year was sentenced to 40 years in prison for three counts of aggravated robbery, court records show.
Bexar County District Court Judge Ron Rangel sentenced William Best in the 379th District Court on Friday. He is accused of a home invasion on April 13, 2023, in east Bexar County.
The Bexar County Sheriff’s Office previously said multiple people were tied up and held at gunpoint during a “violent” home invasion.
Best allegedly had tied up three teenagers, pistol-whipped one in the head and forced another to open gun safes, an investigator from the case told KSAT.
Best was scheduled to appear in court on June 26. However, authorities said he removed his GPS monitor and told his attorney he would not show up.
A warrant was issued for his arrest, and Best was found a month later in Fayette County, Kentucky, by the U.S. Marshals, BCSO previously said.
Best was extradited back to Bexar County and pled guilty to three counts of aggravated robbery on July 30, the investigator told KSAT.
