GEORGETOWN, Ohio — A number of sentencing were recently handed down by the Brown County Common Pleas Court Judge Scott T. Gusweiler.

Vivian D. Keith, 47, of Williamsburg, Ohio was indicted in early July and was charged with third-degree failure to comply with order or signal of a police officer and fourth-degree receiving stolen property. During Keith’s hearing on Aug. 14, she entered a guilty plea for the failure to comply charge.

Gusweiler sentenced Keith to 18 months in the Ohio Department of Corrections, and a driver’s license suspension for 10 years, with the first three years being mandatory. The stolen property charge was dismissed.
