Jailed for Driving High
Thursday, the day that criminal matters are heard in East Hampton Town Justice Court, has been a busy day this past month. Last Thursday, for example, the calendar listed no fewer than 75 defendants. Ronald A. King of East Hampton, 62, pleaded guilty to a charge of driving under the influence of crack cocaine and was sentenced to 60 days in the county jail. Mr. King is awaiting sentencing in another case as well, having admitted on Jan. 8 in county court to a felony charge of grand larceny, stemming from an incident that took place last February.
