WALTON — Delaware County District Attorney Shawn J. Smith announced that Jason Coffey, 28, of Sidney appeared before the Honorable Judge Chad Hall on August 18, 2025, in the Village of Walton Court and pleaded guilty to one count of Petit Larceny, a Class A Misdemeanor. As a result of the conviction, the Honorable Chad Hall sentenced the defendant to 364 days in jail as well as paying fines to the Court.
On May 5, 2024, Coffey entered the Dollar General in the Village of Walton and was observed by staff stealing an item out of the cooler. Coffey was in the Dollar General again on May 21, 2024, and was again observed stealing an item out of the cooler. Coffey was subsequently arrested for both crimes by the Village of Walton Police Department.
The case was prosecuted by Assistant District Attorney Brett Cowen.
Delaware County District Attorney Shawn Smith commended Investigator Kathryn Mitchell and the Walton Police Department for their work in this case. “Coffey has committed a string of crimes in our county recently. Despite being arrested on more than one occasion, the defendant continued to commit crimes. This one-year jail sentence will hopefully deter that illegal conduct.”
