Lloyd Hill, 17, of Gallipolis was sentenced in Independence Virginia to 40 years in the state penitentiary for the murder of 68 year old John Ward of Coal Grove. He also drew a four year term for armed robbery to run concurrently. The judge spared life or death due to the youth and questions about mental maturity. Ward was found beaten February 21 near the Grayson Wythe line. Hill had pleaded guilty to murder and waived a jury trial. Ward’s body was found after Hill claimed Ward had given him the car before going to Florida with another man. Additional welfare and juvenile testimony is noted.
