A woman arrested when police used a spike belt to apprehend the driver of a stolen truck was sentenced Wednesday to time served for her role in the incident as well as for a similar one committed in Mackenzie.
Monique Lee Willey was arrested on Aug. 7, the same day a 2015 Dodge Ram 1500 had gone missing from an 1800-block Oak Street home. Police deployed the spike belt on North Kelly Road and she was apprehended a short time later.
Co-accused Shane Paul Parsons was sentenced Sept. 19 to 27 days in jail and one year probation for possession of stolen property over $5,000. By then, he had been in custody for 41 days.
Willey spent seven days in custody following her arrest in Prince George but by August 27 she was back in custody on a charge of possession of stolen property from Mackenzie and has remained there ever since, for a total of 112 days.
On Wednesday, she was sentenced to time served on breaching probation from the Prince George incident, taking a vehicle without the owner's consent, as well as counts of breaching probation and breaching a recognizance or undertaking, from the Mackenzie incident and for breaching probation from an Aug. 17 offence committed in Prince George.
Willey was also sentenced to one year probation.
