Petty theft leads to 4-year prison sentence
A man was sentenced in Kern County Superior Court last week to four years in prison after pleading guilty in April to petty theft with two prior convictions and admitting to a prior strike. Kristopher Howard's conviction follows an incident Dec. 26 in which he entered the Go Mini Mart on Wilson Road then walked out with a drink without paying, according to a news release Friday from the Kern County District Attorney's Office. It said a store employee approached Howard, who then pushed him and said, "I'm going to kill you," while motioning to his pockets. Howard's six prior theft convictions made him eligible for a felony charge under Proposition 36.
