Share via

A Montrose man arrested earlier this month for allegedly breaking into actress Sandra Bullock’s home was arraigned Wednesday on 19 felony weapons charges after an arsenal of illegal arms was found in his home, according to the Los Angeles County District Attorney’s Office.

Bail for Joshua James Corbett, 39, was set at $2.18 million for both the weapons charges and the previous felony burglary charge.

Last week, Corbett pleaded not guilty to stalking and breaking into Bullock’s home in West Hollywood on June 8.

Following his arrest, officers with the Los Angeles Police Department searched his home and found the illegal weapons, according to a statement from the District Attorney’s Office.

Corbett faces seven counts of possessing a machine gun, two counts of assault-weapon possession and 10 counts of possessing a destructive device, according to the statement.

If convicted on the new charges, he could be sentenced to more than 12 years in county jail.

If found guilty on the residential burglary charge for breaking into Bullock’s home, Corbett faces a maximum prison sentence of seven years and four months.
