James Jimenez, 35, was convicted Friday of criminal trespass for breaking into Kirsten Dunst’s New York City hotel room in 2007 and stealing $15,000 worth of handbags and electronics, reports E! News. While the misdemeanor could send Jimenez to jail for up to a year, the jury was deadlocked when it came to charges of burglary.

Jarrod Beinerman, who was also involved in the incident, pleaded guilty to attempted burglary last year and is serving four years in prison. If convicted of this charge, Jimenez could face up to 15 years behind bars.

Dunst, who had been in New York City at the time of the theft shooting How to Lose Friends and Alienate People, testified about what was missing from her SoHo Grand suite. Simon Pegg, her costar in the film, also testified that his cell phone, camera and iPod were stolen from the room. Some of the stolen items were eventually returned to Dunst after the suspects were caught.

Jimenez testified that he wasn’t clever enough to have planned the break-in. He is free on $50,000 bail until Nov. 13 when he is due back in court for sentencing.

“I feel pretty good,” said Jimenez. “I never gave up my faith in the Lord.”
