A 14-year-old Lewiston boy has been sentenced to probation and community service for his involvement in damaging headstones at Lewiston’s Normal Hill Cemetery.
The teen was charged with felony malicious injury to property after he and two others caused thousands of dollars of damage to over 170 headstones in early April. He was given a suspended sentence of 180 days in the Nez Perce County Juvenile Detention Center, three years’ probation, and 180 hours of community service.
The boy was on probation for a previous charge, and sentenced this week to serve 90 days in the juvenile detention center on a probation violation.
Steven Goss, 19, and a 15-year-old boy are also charged in the incident. Goss is scheduled to be in court May 28 for a probable cause hearing in the case, while the status of the 15-year-old’s case is unclear.
