The Office of the State Attorney for the 16th Judicial Circuit reported that Freddie J. Allen, 57, of Marathon, was sentenced to 60 days in jail after a jury convicted him of resisting an officer without violence. The sentencing took place on November 21, 2025 in the circuit court that handles prosecutions for this jurisdiction. The case reached its resolution when the court imposed the custodial sentence following the jury verdict.
A short release from the prosecution summarized the case history and noted the sentencing date, and contained a statement from the prosecution about the outcome. The court imposed sentence marks the formal end of the matter in the local circuit court, and the announcement was published by local outlet KONK Life. No additional sentencing terms or court orders were detailed in the release distributed by the State Attorney’s office.
For residents of Monroe County, the conviction and sentence underscore how encounters with law enforcement move through the criminal justice system and result in court imposed penalties. A 60 day custodial term will affect Mr. Allen directly and will be reflected in public court records maintained by the 16th Judicial Circuit. Such outcomes also bear on considerations of prosecutorial charging decisions, courtroom resources, and the capacity of local jails.
The case illustrates routine but consequential elements of local criminal prosecutions, from initial charges to jury trials and sentencing. Access to the State Attorney office releases and to circuit court records provides transparency about how those steps concluded in this instance. Residents seeking further detail can consult official filings at the circuit clerk’s office to review charging documents, court minutes, and the formal sentence order.
Reporting on prosecutions and sentencing decisions remains central to public understanding of local government operations. This outcome will be entered in the public record, and it is part of the ongoing work of local courts and prosecutors to process cases that arise from interactions between community members and law enforcement.
