Description

BOOCHEVER, Chief Justice. OPINION. This is a sentence appeal. Mark Spencer Smothers was convicted after trial of burglary in a dwelling, in violation of AS 11.20.080, 1 and was sentenced to twelve years in prison. Smothers contends that his sentence is excessive and specifically alleges that the superior court erred in rejecting a viable alternative to incarceration: commitment to a therapeutic community. We affirm the sentence. Smothers and two companions, Samuel A. Hague and John Heckart, were charged with breaking and entering an occupied residence on February 11, 1977 with the intent to commit larceny therein.
