WARREN A judge told a Dunstan Drive NW man he was giving him a break by sending him to an alternative community program instead of prison for a host of drug convictions.
Gary Provitt, 32, appeared before Trumbull County Common Pleas Court Judge Ronald J. Rice last week after being convicted of charges of attempted possession of a fentanyl-related compound, possession of cocaine, attempted possession of hashish and possession of marijuana.
Rice told the defendant he was giving him a break by sentencing him to five years of intensive supervision probation that will begin with a stint at the Northeast Ohio Community Alternative Program, a rehab that teaches life skills.
