Man gets 21 years for robbing disabled man in home invasion

A man convicted of blindfolding and robbing a disabled man during a West Englewood home invasion in 2012 has been sentenced to 21 years in prison.

Keleen Bishop, 23, was previously convicted of home invasion with a firearm for the Oct. 5, 2012, home invasion in the 7200 block of South Oakley, the Cook County state’s attorney’s office said.

The resident, a 49-year-old disabled man, was home alone when Bishop and another suspect entered the home through an open window and robbed him at gunpoint, prosecutors said.

Bishop and the other man barricaded the victim in a room and blindfolded him before ransacking the home, prosecutors said.

The victim suffered minor injuries and was able to positively identify Bishop, prosecutors said. The second suspect has not been charged.

Judge Erica Reddick handed down the 21-year sentence, the state’s attorney’s office said.
