   McKINNEY, Texas (AP) — A man was sentenced to life in prison after pleading   
   guilty in the attacks of four women who were sexually assaulted in their homes   
   throughout the Dallas area, including three women who were alumnae of the same   
   national Black    
   sorority.   
      
   Jeffery Lemor Wheat, 52, entered the pleas Tuesday in district court in Collin   
   County. With the help of video conferencing, he was sentenced by judges in   
   four different counties, television station WFAA reported.   
      
   The assaults occurred in Dallas, Denton, Collin and Tarrant counties. He   
   received two life sentences for burglary of a habitation with intent of   
   another felony, with one of those charges coming from Tarrant County and the   
   other from Collin County. He    
   also received 30 years in prison for an aggravated sexual assault charge out   
   of Dallas County and 20 years for a sexual assault charge out of Denton   
   County, according to prosecutors’ offices and court records.   
      
   Wheat’s sentences will run at the same time, WFAA reported. Wheat’s   
   attorney, Greg Ashford, told the TV station: “He at least has a chance of   
   parole after 15 years, minus the three years that he has already been   
   incarcerated. So, we felt that was    
   the best outcome of these cases for him.”   
      
   Wheat was arrested in 2021 after investigators used DNA and genealogy research   
   to identify him as a person of interest in the sexual assaults, one which   
   occurred in 2003 and three others that occurred in 2011.   
      
   Limitations in technology in 2003 led to that case being suspended. But years   
   later, DNA testing linked it to the three cases from 2011, prosecutors in   
   Tarrant County said. Prosecutors in Collin County said that investigators then   
   spent two years working    
   with genetic genealogy labs and conducting genealogical research to identify a   
   person of interest.   
      
   All of the victims in the 2011 cases were members of Delta Sigma Theta   
   sorority, prosecutors said. Collin County prosecutors said investigators in   
   Plano determined that Wheat had access to personal information about them when   
   he worked for a credit card    
   processing company the sorority had used.
