A Gleason man was taken into custody while awaiting an April 20 sentencing Wednesday after being found guilty of four criminal charges at conclusion of a jury trial in Langlade County Circuit Court.
The ruling against 43-year-old Roger Stein triggered a verbal outburst by the defendant who showed signs of irritation throughout the hearing including at one point, a request that his attorney, Thomas Roley, be dismissed from the case.
Deliberation by the jury was brief with a verdict of guilt delivered on counts of possession of a firearm by a felon, failure to obey a traffic officer, resisting arrest and battery.
