An Oberlin woman convicted of trafficking in heroin in the vicinity of a juvenile was sentenced to community control Thursday in Huron County Common Pleas Court.
Kristy L. Dunn, 30, wasn't eligible for a prison sentence because she had no other felony convictions, said Richard Woodruff, assistant prosecutor.
She was convicted of a fourth-degree felony.
Woodruff said the community control sentence is for three years, with a 90-day discretionary jail sentence.
"The probation officer can send her to jai without going back to court if she violates the terms of her parole," Woodruff said.
In exchange for Dunn's guilty plea, Woodruff agreed earlier to dismiss a third-degree felony from another related case.
Dunn was charged with intimidation of a witness in connection with a Sept. 12 incident. Attorneys have said the defendant reportedly threatened to physically harm a female witness involved in the drug transaction which happened March 14. Woodruff said Dunn sold 2 grams of heroin to a confidential informant.

Community Control? That almost sounds fun. Hey, I'm going to quit my job and start dealing heroin. I have no prior felonies, so if I ever do get busted, I get Community Control...PARTY!
Bailey,Might as well commit a few other crimes too because they'll just get thrown out as long as you plead guilty to the 1st one.
Good point. My neighbor just bought a 60" HDTV I want, and I'm sure they have other stuff I could use. If I apologize, that slap on the wrist shouldn't leave much of a red mark.
but she's super duper sorry guys! Ease up it just some illegal drugs on the streets being sold to our children... what's the big deal?
This makes me puke!
I would just like to say. Kristy I'm very proud of you!! You have been doing everything to get and actually stay sober!!! Congratulations on graduating your drug classes months ago. Also your a hard worker and a wonderful mommy! Best move you ever made was moving out of the heroin hole! Keep up the Great work!

Kristy if you mess up again[I hope you dont] get in your car and drive to Mexico, and stay there ,they like drug sellers there.
Moral of the story..... Don't have any prior felony convictions & you'll just get community control no prison because you have no other felony convictions!? Who's with me?
& if you do have a bunch of prior felony convictions you're going straight to the cbcf for a couple months!
Doesn't look too sober in this pic!!
Drug Trafficking is a first degree felony punishable by up to 30 years in Florida. Just sayin.
