HENNEFORTH, John Jr.

HONESDALE - Senior Judge Raymond Hamill sentenced John Henneforth, Jr., 39, of Greentown to 21 to 42 months in a State Correctional Institution for one felony count of criminal useo f a communication facility.

His latest sentence will be served in addition to Henneforth’s four prior drug convictions with a maximum release date of Aug. 28, 2022.

“The best place for him is in a State Correctional Institution.” DA Robinson added. “I will oppose any future paroles or early releases for Mr. Henneforth.”

The Wayne County Drug Task Force (WCDTF) conducted the investigation.
