He's already in jail for two 5 year sentences for firearm and ammunition convictions, but 36 year old Jason Joseph Williams, was sentenced to 5 more years today by Magistrate Dale Cayetano after he was found guilty of theft of a 2007 Kia SUV.

The theft really started as a rental on January 6, 2014. The owner of Euphrates Auto Rental, 53 year old Robert Wagner, known as "Small Change", testified that on January 6, Williams rented a Kia Sport, value at $34,000 dollars. He rented it for 2 days at $150 dollars per day – and when Williams didn't return it, Wagner reached him and he requested two more weeks.

Wagner said he tried to contact Williams several times after that but he had no luck. Two more months would pass before police recovered the vehicle in Placencia on March 6. Williams was detained in Placencia the same day. He testified and admitted that he had rented the vehicle from Wagner . He said that he did not steal the vehicle because the charge sheet read that he stole the vehicle on January 6 and that was the day he legally rented the vehicle. But his testimony did not hold and he was found guilty. The 5 year sentence is to run consecutively to the sentences he is serving – meaning he gets 5 more year in jail in addition to the ten he is already serving.
