There's a guilty plea from one of three men working at a local pawn shop who allegedly paid addicts for stolen merchandise that they could then sell online.
Eric Finnefrock worked at Rochester Pawn & Gold and pleaded guilty to conspiracy to transport stolen goods.
The store owner and another worker are still awaiting trial.
Authorities say addicts shoplifted millions of dollars in merchandise from area stores, and bought drugs with the money they were paid. Three later died of overdoses.
Two other defendants were charged in a similar investigation at another pawn shop.
