The Madison County man police dubbed the "Pillowcase Bandit" enters a guilty plea.

Michael Hobbs made the plea after a judge denied his motion to suppress a confession. Hobbs admitted that he broke into several homes around the Madison County area.

The majority of homeowners who reported the burglaries also reported a missing pillowcase. Police believe Hobbs used the pillowcases to gather loot from the homes.

Sentencing for Hobbs is September 13th.
