SEATTLE (AP) — The federal court sentencing date for Colton Harris-Moore in the Barefoot Bandit case has been set for Jan. 27.

He pleaded guilty in June to charges that included the theft of a plane in a cross-country crime spree. He was arrested in 2010 in the Bahamas.

The seattlepi.com reports (http://is.gd/wCQHDj ) the 20-year-old is expected to face a seven-year sentence.

Harris-Moore also is scheduled to appear in court Dec. 16 in Coupeville where he is expected to plead guilty to about 30 burglary and other charges. They were combined from Island, Snohomish and San Juan counties where the Camano Island man began breaking into cabins as a barefoot teen.

State prosecutors are asking for a nine-year sentence. The federal and state terms would be served at the same time.
