Ada gets 9 months for ‘ice’

Visiting Senior Judge John C. Coughenour of Washington state ordered Ada  to pay a $300 special assessment fee  immediately after sentencing.

But Coughenour waived all fines after it was determined that Ada does not have the ability to pay them.

Ada’s court-appointed attorney F. Matthew Smith recommended for the low-end of the sentencing guidelines with credit for time served.

Assistant U.S. Attorney James Benedetto, who prosecuted the case, recommended a nine-month jail term.

Ada who pleaded guilty to possession of a controlled substance with intent to distribute, was arrested last year.
