Barber granted shock probation

Toni G. Barber, incarcerated since Dec. 5, 2007, after being sentenced to seven years on one count of manslaughter and two years on one count of criminal abuse, was granted shock probation Friday by retired Senior Circuit Court Judge Lewis D. Nicholls.
The conditions of Barber’s release include an intensive 30-day drug rehabilitation program plus grief and depression counseling in Elizabethtown. Following her release from the facility, Nicholls has ordered Barber to perform community service work at the Hope Pregnancy Center in Morehead, maintain full-time employment or return to college, and attend Narcotics Anonymous meetings three times per week and participate in intensive out-patient treatments administered through Comprehend.
In addition, Barber is to establish a fund in the name of her deceased son, Kaleb Davis and to make annual donations to the fund in the amount of $1,000 for the next seven years, which is the number of years she was to serve in prison. She is also subject to random drug testing and home visits by her probation and parole officer. Barber's probation covers a five-year period.
