Akron Man Pleads to RSP

Michael A. Hilson, 21, of Pondview in Akron, Ohio, entered a no contest plea on Tuesday, December 14, 2010, in Judge Kimbler's courtroom to one count of Receiving Stolen Property. Because the property was a credit card, the charge was a felony even though, according to the assistant Medina County Prosecutor who represented the State, there was no economic loss caused to the card holder. After receiving the plea, Judge Kimbler found Mr. Hilson guilty, ordered a presentence investigation, and continued his bond. He will be sentenced on January 21, 2010.
