Albermarle County residents George and Elisa Robinson each were sentenced to 27 months in jail Wednesday for providing alcohol to minors at a party last summer. The pair previously had received an eight year sentence from a lower court, but the 27 month sentence is two years longer than prosecutors requested. They are expected to appeal the decision.
According to prosecutors, the Robinsons provided $350 worth of alcohol for their son's 16th birthday party last summer. Further, according to prosecutors, they took keys from only a small number of the teens in attendance, and encouraged party-goers to gargle vinegar so that alcohol could not be detected on their breath. The Robinsons apologized in court for their actions.
