Man sentenced for probation violations

 


A Thompson Falls man was sentenced to the Department of Corrections on Tuesday for multiple probation violations. Judge James Manley sentenced Cody Potter to three years with the DOC, recommending him for treatment programs as well.

“I hope you take this opportunity for rehabilitation,” Judge Manley told Potter, “and change your lifestyle and thinking.”

In court Tuesday, Potter admitted to several violations of his probation, including testing positive for methamphetamines, alcohol and THC, and not completing treatment.

In December 2017, Potter had been found guilty of criminal endangerment and received a three-year deferred sentence.

Potter apologized “for being selfish and not taking care of my responsibilities.”

Judge Manley gave Potter credit for 27 days served in the Sanders County Jail.
