Spang sentenced to three years probation on assault charge

Correction

The original version of this story misreported a charge to which Jacob Spang pleaded guilty in 2002. Spang pleaded guilty in a plea agreement to intimidation by accountability in connection to a double murder in Havre in 1999.

Spang entered the plea agreement after the Montana Supreme Court overturned jury convictions of two counts of intimidation by accountability and one of tampering with evidence, ruling that statements by Spang made after he said he needed a lawyer should not have been admitted in his trial.
