Elderly Man Decries Thieving Kin’s Sentence

Item: Plea deal leaves elderly man dissatisfied /Alison Boggs, SR

More Info: In Coeur d’Alene on Wednesday, First District Judge Charles Hosack accepted a plea deal arranged by the prosecuting attorney’s office and Treat’s attorney, Mark Jackson. Although admitting no guilt, Treat paid $40,000 restitution and agreed to repay $8,800 more within a year. She will serve two years of probation for the felony conviction and perform 100 hours of community service. That was little comfort to Oehrlin and his daughter, Jan Stanton, who place the amount stolen by Treat closer to $150,000 when equity in the home is included. They decried the lack of jail time and the fact that Treat could one day expunge the conviction from her record.

Question: What do you think of this plea deal?
