A man who has a long string of crimes on his record returned to Baxter County Circuit Court Monday, where he pled guilty to his newest charges and was sentenced to five years in prison.
Sixty-four-year-old Thomas Harvey of rural Mountain Home has been in and out of court, jail and prison and on probation or parole since 1989.
Harvey’s latest arrest came in early January, when he was picked up on felony charges of maintaining a drug premise and possession of drug paraphernalia.
He also faces a misdemeanor charge of hindering apprehension.
The January arrest was the culmination of several incidents that began Nov. 3 last year.
