Colacino was taken to the Laramie County Detention Center and subsequently charged with burglary, a felony punishable by up to 10 years in prison, up to a $10,000 fine, or both, and criminal trespass, a misdemeanor punishable by up to six months in jail, up to a $750 fine, or both.

The burglary is alleged to have occurred on or about Friday, Aug. 1 to Monday, Aug. 3, and the criminal trespass is alleged to have occurred on or about Sunday, Aug. 17.

Initial Court Appearance

On Tuesday, Aug. 19, Colacino was seen in Laramie County Circuit Court in front of Judge Antoinette Williams on the charges.

"Mr. Colacino has a history of similar charges, including a burglary from 2023 ... He obtained, I believe, two felony theft charges while on bond in that case (and) he's still on probation in that burglary case and the state will be filing a revocation there," the state told the court, requesting a $3,000 cash bond.
