No Prison Time for Zanesville Man

Posted On: November 6th, 2019

Back in 2017, a young man overdosed on drugs in his Zanesville home while partaking in the activity with some friends. The two friends cleaned the scene, left the man’s house, then anonymously called 911 to report the situation. Eventually, the two friends were charged, and one of them retained Luftman, Heck & Associates of criminal defense firm Luftman, Heck & Associates as his legal counsel.

While our’s client did plead guilty to tampering with evidence, he spent the time between his initial arrest and his sentencing hearing working to change his life. He completed drug court in Perry County, maintained a good job, and worked to better his situation. Due to these actions, LHA was able to convince the judge not to sentence his client to prison. Rather, he will have to pay restitution, and complete a three-year community control sentence that involves public service and group intervention work.
