First Of 18 Sentenced In Darke Co. Sex Sting

The first of 18 men charged in a computer sex sting in March was sentenced Tuesday in a Darke County courtroom.

Alonzo Wade, 41, of Greenfeild, Ohio, was ordered to serve 67 days in jail. He was given credit for the 67 days that he has already served. The remainder of a 15-month prison term was suspended.

Wade was fined $1,500 and ordered to serve 60 hours of community service and pay for part of the overtime paid to deputies during the investigation, which amouts to $1,477.

At his arraignment in April, Wade entered a plea of no contest to a charge of attempted unlawful sexual conduct with a minor. He was also labeled a sexually-oriented offender.
