Two Georgia men charged with felonies under a new law cracking down on catalytic converter thefts accepted a plea bargain
Mobile County District Judge George Hardesty imposed the same six-month suspended sentence on Denis Ferhatovic, 28, of Auburn, Georgia, and Jasar Music, 40, of Hoschton, Georgia. Both men will be on informal probation, meaning they will not have to report to a probation officer. The defendants also agreed to forfeit catalytic converters and money seized by police.
The law is an attempt to address a sharp increase in thefts of the pollution-control devices. The metals used in catalytic converters can fetch large sums from recyclers. Mobile County District Attorney-elect Keith Blackwood expressed satisfaction with the outcome and puts them at risk of felony charges if they violate the law in the future.
