A few months before his 2151 birthday, Johnson and a confederate burst into a jewel store with guns drawn and demanded money from the store&#8217;s employees. The frightened clerks complied, after which Johnson and his accomplice smashed display cases, grabbed valuable jewelry and fled the store. Johnson was sentenced to two years in state prison for this felony strike offense. At age 23, Johnson received a Fed Ex package meant for someone else by accident. After denying he received the package the intended recipient found his goods for sale on Craigslist. A subsequent online sting revealed that Johnson was selling the items which were found at his residence. In 2014, police officers busted Johnson for possession of heroin.\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.sacda.org\/index.php\/download_file\/view\/1863\/533\/\">District Attorney\u2019s Letter Opposing Early Release<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-thumbnail wp-image-2374\" src=\"http:\/\/www.klaaskids.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/08\/Kristina-Anne-Killian-150x150.jpg\" alt=\"Kristina Anne Killian\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" \/>Killian, Kristina Anne<\/strong>:\u00a0Since 1994, Killian has received 8 felony convictions and 5 misdemeanor convictions. \u00a0Her crimes range from reckless driving with substantial bodily injury, where she ran over her boyfriend, breaking both his legs and his collar bone, to simple drug possession.
