Sill drove away in the vehicle and then stole license plates from another vehicle and put them on the stolen 2010 GMC Acadia.
This wasn’t just any car. It belongs to the FBI.
“It had police emergency lights in it. It had an FBI radio in it and an FBI jacket in it,” Assistant Hamilton County Prosecutor Micheal Peck said Tuesday when Sill was supposed to be sentenced in the case.
“This idiot knew exactly what he was doing. He’s just a big dummy.”
It took police three weeks to find Sill. He was driving the stolen FBI vehicle when arrested Jan. 5. He was charged with and then convicted of three counts of stolen property.
Sill, of California, Ohio, was due to be sentenced Tuesday before Common Pleas Court Judge Norbert Nadel but didn’t show up.
When police catch Sill, he faces a range of punishment from probation to a maximum of 3½ years in prison.
