CLEARFIELD – A former Brisbin woman accused of being involved in a robbery, pleaded guilty to lesser charges Monday during sentencing court before Judge Paul E. Cherry.
Kacy Rae Figart, 32, whose address is now listed as Curwensville, was sentenced to serve three months to one year less one day in the county jail with two years consecutive probation for misdemeanor conspiracy/simple assault and recklessly endangering another person.
Cherry noted that she was fortunate that several of the felony charges she was facing including robbery and aggravated assault were dropped by the district attorney. He added that if she violates her probation, she will go to state prison.
Figart and Cody Lynn Luzier, 38, lured the victim to their Brisbin home, then attacked and robbed him.
In a separate case from 2024, Figart also pleaded guilty to driving under the influence, possession of a controlled substance and possession of drug paraphernalia. For this, she was given an additional sentence of six months to one year in jail and two years concurrent probation.
For a third case, she must pay fines and costs for possession of a controlled substance and possession of drug paraphernalia.
Prior to sentencing, her attorney, Daniel Nelson, told the court she realized she had a problem and went to a rehabilitation program.
“She is not the same person.”
Her co-defendant, Luzier, was sentenced by President Judge Fredric J. Ammerman to serve 51 months to 8.5 years in state prison in August after he was convicted of aggravated assault and conspiracy.
At his trial in May, the jury chose to acquit him of the additional charges of robbery, criminal conspiracy/robbery, a second count of aggravated assault, criminal conspiracy/aggravated assault and strangulation.
The original charges stem from an incident in November 2023 at a Brisbin residence.
According to the affidavit of probable cause, on Nov. 20, 2023, the victim contacted Figart, asking about the two getting together. She invited him to her home to visit with her and another female friend.
The victim arrived at the home around 2 a.m. that night. They were in the living room for a while before Figart asked him to go back to the bedroom to look at her water bong, police said.
As he walked back towards the bedroom, he was reportedly attacked by Luzier, who struck him in the head multiple times with a metal object.
The victim told authorities he fell to the floor and Luzier jumped on top of him. Luzier then began to choke and threatened to kill him, according to the criminal complaint.
Somehow the victim was able to get away from Luzier and leave the residence. He sought treatment at Penn Highlands Clearfield, according to the police report.
Luzier was accussed of taking $415 and a Bluetooth speaker from the man.
During the trial, Luzier testified in his defense, saying he did not rob the victim, but admitted to getting angry and fighting with him, according to media reports.
