MOUNT VERNON – It’s three years and three months behind bars for the local woman who harbored a murderer who eventually plead guilty to killing his mother and girlfriend last September. Ashli Price, 30, was sentenced Friday by Knox County Common Pleas Court Judge Otho Eyster to 30 months for obstructing justice and 9 months for aggravated drug possession. Travis Bonham was picked up by law enforcement October 4th in Licking County. Price was driving the vehicle in which Bonham was a passenger. Bonham plead guilty to killing Sandra Stelk and Jaime Barber.
Knox County Prosecutor Chip McConville tells KnoxPages.com that it is a “strong sentence” for Price. The drug possession charge comes from the fact that her baby girl born in May came into the world addicted to drugs. McConville says the child was in a “detox sort of state for a while” at Nationwide Children’s Hosptal in Columbus.
