Father and Son Convicted of Copper Theft in Grundy
In Grundy Virginia, Larry Michael Stacy Sr. and Larry Michael Stacy Jr. both of Wolford were found guilty of grand larceny and related charges for stealing copper from Consol Energy.

The judge cited criminal histories and family relationship in crafting sentences, warning copper theft causes high financial damage with little resale value. Both are in Haysi Regional Jail awaiting transfer to the Department of Corrections.
