Green County Circuit Court Felonies
• Trevor Robert Frie, 23, Monroe, pleaded guilty Friday, Feb. 15, to three felony counts of forgery and was sentenced to 45 days in jail and three years of probation. Court records indicate Frie forged checks for $156.37, $150 and $300 at Monroe banks within the past six months. A misdemeanor charge that he stole $50 from Monroe's Pick-N-Save while employed at the grocery store in January 2012 was dismissed but "read in" to the sentencing. Multiple charges of bail jumping were dismissed. Conditions of Frie's probation include that he pay restitution, undergo any recommended counseling and "obtain and maintain employment and not quit for any reason." If he successfully completes probation, he'll be eligible to have the convictions expunged from his record, under a state statute that gives leniency to youthful offenders.
