COLUMBUS, Ohio — The Ohio Supreme Court has upheld a 65-year prison term imposed on a central Ohio woman
to stealing jewelry and other valuables from several dozen elderly residents at nursing homes and assisted living facilities., including burglary, theft and receiving stolen property. As part of a plea deal, she acknowledged stealing jewelry, watches and other items from residents of senior living facilities.Gwynne told the judge she began stealing items from patients’ rooms to support her cocaine habit while working as a nurse at an assisted living facility in 2004.
, saying"no single prison term" would be adequate given the serious offenses. In 2017, the Fifth District Court of Appeals overturned the sentence, citing Gwynne's age and status as a nonviolent first-time offender. It said a 15-year prison term was appropriate. The high court reversed that decision in 2019 and told the appeals court to reconsider. The lower court then upheld the 65-year term, saying it had no authority to modify the consecutive sentences.
The state Supreme Court voted 4-3 in December to send the case back for reconsideration again. But in January — after control of the high court shifted parties — it voted 4-3 to reconsider its own decision.Related Articles
