A Libby man recently was sentenced to prison following his conviction on a felony burglary charge in a jury trial.
Clifford Scott Admire, 55, initially pleaded not guilty at his April 28, 2024, arraignment. A few days before his trial in late January, Admire sought a new public defender, but Lincoln County District Judge Matt Cuffe denied his request.
Admire was found guilty on Jan. 27. On March 31, Cuffe sentenced him to 15 years in the Montana State Prison with 10 suspended. Admire received 27 days credit for time spent in custody at the county jail. He must also pay $5,403 in restitution.
