A second local judge has committed to handing down jail time for convicted copper thieves.
Niagara County Judge Sara Sheldon Farkas set the precedent, and now State Supreme Court Justice Richard Kloch, Sr. is following suit. Kloch announced his intentions during the arraignments of a pair of culprits in court on Thursday.
Farkas claims that the stiffer sentences led to a decrease in the crime in the past.
