A Fleming County jury returned a guilty verdict in a wanton endangerment case against a man also charged with murder.
Roy I. Pollard Jr. was found guilty of wanton endangerment, terroristic threatening and violating an EPO. The charges stem from an encounter with Eric Thompson, the brother of Jason Thompson, who was shot to death in January. Pollard has been charged with that murder and that of Willa Thompson, who was killed the same night.
According to Eric Thompson, Pollard came to the Thompson residence in December and pulled a gun on Thompson.
Pollard was sentenced to five years for terroristic threatening, 12 months for wanton endangerment, 12 months for violation of a Kentucky EPO, to run concurrent. Each count also carries a $500 fine.
