An Ironton woman was found guilty of violating the terms of her community-controlled sanctions.
Following a CCS violation trial Wednesday during Lawrence County Common Pleas Court, Judge D. Scott Bowling found that Glenna Boothe, 27, of 651 Township Road 2745, Ironton, was in violation because she was discharged from the STAR community justice program. Boothe was sentenced to 17 months in prison.
Lynne Stewart, adult probation officer, testified that she received notification from STAR that Boothe had been discharged unsuccessfully for making threats of violence.
After her sentencing, her attorney Mike Gleichauf requested the court show leniency to Boothe.
Bowling replied that he would only show leniency to Boothe if she had good behavior. She may be considered for a judicial release in that case, he said.
