WARREN A Youngstown man, who in 2019 was acquitted of a murder charge in Mahoning County, on Thursday received an indefinite prison term between five and seven years after pleading guilty to a host of felonies connected to a June 2020 incident involving a gun at a Liberty Township home.
Albert D. Byrd IV, 26, of 1102 Wilshire Drive, pleaded guilty to two counts of aggravated burglary, two counts of felonious assault, one count of kidnapping, one count of burglary and one of count domestic violence. Five of the charges carried firearms specifications, which added one mandatory year to the prison sentence.
Trumbull County Common Pleas Judge Ronald J. Rice, who had agreed to the jointly recommended sentence by prosecutors and the defense attorney, ordered Byrd to register as repeated violent offender in Ohio.
