WARREN — LaShawn Ziegler, former operator of two controversial city taverns, has been sentenced to five years’ probation and ordered to pay $5,000 in fines and forfeit $13,123 on nine felony charges related to automobiles and drugs.
Ziegler, 38, of North Park Avenue, also will lose his driver’s license for six months and be required to pay the cost of his intensive-supervision probation.
If he fails to abide by the conditions of his probation, he could go to prison for three years, Judge W. Wyatt McKay told him during the sentencing in Trumbull County Common Pleas Court.
Ziegler pleaded guilty last month to two counts of receiving stolen property, three counts of tampering with records, and single counts of falsification, marijuana possession and marijuana trafficking.

Nine felony charges.
Fines, forfeiture of revenue, and probation
Nine felony charges.
No jail time.
I wonder who he knows. Nine felonies should have earned him some jail time. Oh, but I am sure he learned his lesson. Right.
9 felonies. 9! And a slap on the wrist. I had 1 and was sent to prison for 15 months (of course this was in Morrow County). Amazing.
