A Pedro woman was sentenced to three years community controlled sanctions under intensive supervised probation Wednesday after she pleaded guilty to two counts of forgery.
Sheryl Logsdon, 33, of 14565 State Route 93, will serve 60 days of her sentence in the county jail. Lawrence County Common Pleas Judge Richard Walton told Logsdon if she violates the terms of her sanctions she could be sentenced to 22 months in prison.
Logsdon was indicted last month on two counts of forgery.
Also, a Proctorville man was sentenced to prison this week after he pleaded guilty to aggravated burglary, felonious assault, violation of a protective order and criminal damaging. William E. Rowe, 47, of 23336 State Route 243, was arrested in August and charged with breaking into a Proctorville area residence and threatening a man there with a knife.
Rowe was sentenced to four years on each of the assault and aggravated burglary charges, 11 months for violating the protective order and 90 days in jail for the criminal damaging charge, with all sentences running concurrently.
An Ironton man was sentenced to 45 days in the Lawrence County Jail for violating the terms of his probation. John E. Reynolds, 36, of 2216 North Fifth St., was originally sentenced to four years in prison in May 2002 for a third-degree child endangerment conviction. But he was granted a judicial release in November 2002. At that time, he was ordered to serve three years community controlled sanctions. On October 26, he was arrested on a domestic violence charge and tested positive for cocaine.
Reynolds was given credit for 16 days already served in the Lawrence County Jail.
If he violates the terms of his sanctions, he could be sentenced to 3 years and 4 1/2 months in prison. He was also ordered to pay court costs.
