The circuit solicitor, Chrissy Adams, issued this statement after the sentencing of a young man for his part in murder and other crimes committed at a home in Utica on New Year’s Day 2014:  “Today’s guilty plea allows the families of Scott Johnston and Jody Corley to see justice delivered for the unbearable pain and loss that James Toward put them through and ensure that the man who murdered Mr. Johnston is sent to prison for the next 48 years,” said Adams.
