Detroit Lakes, MN – Former Senator, Democrat Nicole Mitchell, will spend only 180 days in prison for burglarizing her stepmother’s Detroit Lakes home.
A Becker County judge sentenced Mitchell this morning (September 23) to the roughly 6-month work release, plus five years of supervised probation. She received a stayed 21-month prison term, which she’ll only serve if she violates probation.
Mitchell admitted guilt in court, saying, “I deserve to be here today.” Her attorney had requested the felony charges be reduced to misdemeanors.
