PETERSBURG — Connie Craig, 34, and Russell Whiteside, 40, both of Petersburg, pleaded guilty Thursday in Pike County Circuit Court to dissemination of matter harmful to minors, a Class D felony.
In the proceeding, Craig and Whiteside admitted that during the summer of 2012 they engaged in lewd sexual acts in a location where two minor children could see or hear their activities.
Pursuant to the terms of the plea agreement, each defendant received a sentence of 545 days with credit for 70 days at the Pike County Jail and the remainder suspended to probation. They also will be required to perform community service. The plea agreement provides Craig and Whiteside each the right to ask the court to reduce the charge to a Class A misdemeanor if they successfully complete all terms of their probation.
