An Ironton man accused of stealing vehicles and breaking into multiple businesses denied the charges Wednesday in Lawrence County Common Pleas Court.

According to the indictment, Brett Goody, 33, of 373 Township Road 297, allegedly stole a 2004 Jeep Liberty and a 2001 Chrysler Town and Country Van on March 24.

Also on the same day, Goody allegedly broke into Wendy’s, cracked a safe and took a moneybag.

According to Assistant Prosecuting Attorney Mack Anderson, Goody was arrested after being spotted on the roof of Sparetime, which he is also accused of breaking into.

Goody was arraigned on two counts of fourth-degree grand theft, two counts of fifth-degree breaking and entering, fourth-degree safe cracking, and fifth-degree possession of criminal tools. Goody pleaded not guilty to all charges.

Judge Charles Cooper continued bond set at a lower court of $60,000 cash or surety. Goody will return to court for a pretrial April 17.

In other cases:

• Donna Wicker, 51, of 3714 County Road 21, Ironton, was sentenced to three years in prison on a third-degree count of theft. Wicker was also ordered to pay restitution in the amount of $14,421.

Anderson said the victim in the case, an 89-year-old woman, was in agreement with the sentence.

Wicker’s attorney, Warren Morford, said the theft was a result of his client’s gambling addiction and she had no prior criminal record.
