Putnam County Man Sent To Anthony Center
WEST VIRGINIA....
In April, 22 year old Courtney Shelton of Buffalo in Putnam County pleaded guilty to attempted kidnapping and three misdemeanors, including battery on a police officer, admitting that, in December, he led police on a high-speed chase that began in North Charleston and ended in Dunbar. Friday, Kanawha Circuit Judge Duke Bloom ordered Shelton to complete a program at the Anthony Center in Greenbrier County, a facility for youthful offenders. The program can take anywhere between nine months and two years. Following completion, Bloom says he would consider placing Shelton on probation. Otherwise, Shelton will likely be headed to prison. Shelton has no criminal record and has been on home confinement without any problems since his arrest.
