In Greene County district court sentencing was done in a pair of cases against Michael Lynn Heard Sr, 53, of Jefferson. The sentencing was done as part of a probation revocation in a case from 2010 in which Heard was charged with delivery of cocaine. On that charge, he was sentenced to 10 years in prison, but the prison term was suspended and he was placed on probation. The probation was revoked and Heard was sent to prison following a hearing Nov. 3.
Heard was sentenced in a case from October 2013 in which he pleaded guilty to a charge of criminal mischief-third degree, amended from criminal mischief-second degree. He was sentenced to two years in prison, concurrent to the sentence in the 2010 case. The fine was waived. A judgment was entered for $5,964.67 court costs, and he paid $2,000 in “other” financial obligations to the court. No disposition was entered on a charge of domestic abuse assault-serious. He was also sentenced to 30 days jail, concurrent, in a case from August 2014 in which he was charged with theft-fifth degree aiding and abetting. The fine and surcharge was waived but a judgment was entered for $606.76 court costs. (Sentencing: Honorable Joel E. Swanson)
