Columbus woman sentenced for having slaying victims' cards
YOUNGSTOWN -- Holly Washington, 44, of Columbus has been sentenced to two years' probation and must pay court costs for having credit cards that belonged to a murder victim.
Washington was sentenced Wednesday by Mahoning County Common Pleas Court Judge Maureen A. Sweeney after pleading guilty to one count of receiving stolen property.
The credit cards were those of Suzanne M. Dalton, 43, of Columbus. George Ware IV of Columbus and formerly of Youngstown murdered Dalton in Columbus in December 2002.
He drove Dalton's body to Youngstown in the car owned by the woman's husband and then burned the car with her body in it on Youngstown's East Side.
Ware was convicted in November 2003 in Franklin County of aggravated murder, aggravated robbery, kidnapping, arson and abuse of a corpse. He is serving a life sentence without parole.
