A man prosecutors say went on a stealing spree all winter long was ordered to serve seven years in prison, but could be transferred to a drug-treatment program after 120 days of shock time in prison.

As we reported, Jarrett Crockett Hendrix pleaded guilty in April to one class-d felony count of stealing, blaming the thefts on his addition to methamphetamine. His lawyer said he was living “…in a fog of mtehamphetamine and pot,” and that he used up to an “8-ball” of meth every day.

Prosecutors say he went on a stealing spree “…all winter long,” and was responsible for a half-dozen or more “smash and grab” and other thefts. Officials believe Crockett was responsible for a string of thefts at Gordman’s, Roth’s, Dollar General, Rally House, CVS Pharmacy and The Fort among others.

On Monday, Assistant Public Defender Shariece Canady asked Circuit Judge Daniel Kellogg to give Hendrix a chance to get clean. Canady asked that the case be moved to the Drug Court program, or 120 day treatment program.

Judge Kellogg declined to offer outright probation, ordering a seven year sentence. The judge will retain jurisdiction in the case for 120 days and at that time will order an assessment for a drug program.  Kellogg also ordered Hendrix to repay $1,050.04 in restitution.
