During the last 20 years he has been in jail for approximately 17 out of those 20 years. Illegal entry into someone\u2019s home is an intrusive and long-lasting crime. Once the sanctity of one\u2019s home is broken, victims never feel as safe as they once did. Mr. Hensley\u2019s possession of stolen items taken from these homes is just as serious,\u201d said Wyoming County District Attorney Donald O\u2019Geen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">First Assistant District Attorney Vincent Hemming prosecuted the case for the People and Steven Sessler, Esq. was the attorney for the defendant. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&#8212;&#8211;PREVIOUSLY&#8212;&#8211;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/videonewsservice.net\/index.php\/2021\/09\/17\/wyoming-county-former-warsaw-resident-convicted-after-four-day-jury-trial\/\">WYOMING COUNTY\/Former Warsaw resident convicted after four day jury trial \u2013 Video News Service<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>On Wednesday, December 15, 2021, Gary Wayne Hensley appeared before the Honorable Michael M.
