Judge removes jail time from DWI defendant’s sentence

NORWICH – Rita Warner, Front Street, Binghamton, who was arrested on driving while intoxicated charges in February of 2006, stood before the county’s judge Monday to proceed with the execution of a sentence that was handed down in 2007.

Since that time, Warner’s case has proceeded through the court system with a jury trial resulting in a guilty verdict. Following her conviction, she faced a sentence of 30 days incarceration and five years probation. Warner appealed, but was denied.
