Vernon county man sentenced on Alford Plea

Michael D. Foulk, 36, of Sheldon, MO was sentenced under an Alford Plea this week in a charge of vehicle tampering. 

Mr. Foulk received a five year sentence in the Missouri Department of Corrections, which was suspended in lieu of five years supervised probation.

Note- an Alford Plea is used when a person does not plead guilty, but there is hard evidence to prove guilt beyond a reasonable doubt.
