LUDINGTON — An 18-year-old Georgia woman was sentenced in 51st Circuit Court Monday, Sept. 12, to serve six months up front of a one-year discretionary jail term for convictions of receiving and concealing a stolen firearm and third-degree home invasion.

Juliana Ruby Quiroz, who was arrested last May by the Mason County Sheriff’s Office, is “the final of four defendants to be brought to court for a series of home invasions in Mason County,” said Mason County Prosecutor Paul Spaniola. All of the defendants are teenagers from Georgia.

Quiroz committed the crimes when she was 17 years old, said her attorney David Glancy, and this case is her first felony. Although, she has felony charges pending in Georgia.

“I hope that you make a serious change in your life,” said Judge Susan K. Sniegowski.

Quiroz was also ordered to three years probation and pay over $16,000 restitution with her co-defendants. She received credit for 117 days served in jail.
