LHS thief sentenced

After a series of thefts at LHS in October, James Dudley was sentenced Dec. 1  to three to five years in prison.  
  The sentencing by Judge Jeff M. Brudie of Lewiston Second District Court was related to the LHS burglary spree in October, and Dudley’s drug charge later that month. The Purr previously reported on Dudley’s crimes, which included several vehicle thefts on the LHS campus, breaking into Booth Hall, and more vehicle break-ins at Vollmer Bowl.
    According to the Lewiston Tribune, Brudie told Dudley that his performance in rehabilitation would determine “whether I put you on probation or waive my jurisdiction and allow you to serve your three to five-year sentence.”
    Kevin Driskill, principal of LHS, said that the sentencing was “rewarding and gratifying” after efforts from Student Resource Officer Rob Massey and Assistant Principal Chad Arlint.
  “[They] put a lot of time and work into finding the person who stole from our school and our kids,” Driskill said.
