An Ironton man will serve four years in prison for second-degree robbery.

Troy Massie, 19, of 5740 State Route 93, Ironton, pleaded guilty to the charge Tuesday in Lawrence County Common Pleas Court. Judge Charles Cooper sentenced Massie to four years in prison.

Also in court Wednesday, an Ironton man who stole lumber from a construction site pleaded guilty to theft and criminal trespassing.

Judge Charles Cooper asked Eastham for details about the theft.

“I’ve been strung out on drugs for a long time,” Eastham told the judge. “I saw something that I wanted and I took it.”

The man also said he had not planned the theft beforehand with his co-defendant, Kenneth Bentley, 22, of 832 Turvey St., Flatwoods, Ky. The two were driving around when Eastham asked Bentley to help him.

“He was a young kid; he was vulnerable,” Eastham said.

Cooper sentenced Eastham to a total of eight months in prison for the charges. Eastham also admitted to a CCS violation and was sentenced to another eight months in prison.

His sentences will be served consecutively for a total of 16 months in prison.
