WAUSAU, WI (WSAU) — A man who jumped from a second-story hotel window as officers were confronting him regarding a drug investigation has been given a withheld probation sentence for taking a vehicle without the consent of the owner.
Lawrence Lavergne was in court on Monday where he entered a no contest plea to the felony count. In exchange, a count of fleeing or eluding an officer was dismissed but read into the record.
Drug-related charges against Lavergne including possession of THC, amphetamines, and drug paraphernalia were all dismissed on a prosecutor’s motion.
As part of the two-year withheld sentence, the 40-year-old must maintain absolute sobriety and full-time employment or schooling, or a combination of the two. If not employed or enrolled in school, he must complete 9 hours of community service per week.
Lavergne must also complete all assessments, treatment, and counseling deemed appropriate and pay court costs.
