A 91-year-old Alabama mayor pleaded guilty to stealing more than $200,000 from the city she represents, WSFA reported.
Mary Hixon, 91, pleaded guilty to one count of theft of property in the first degree.
Hixon—who has been in office for more than 30 years—resigned as mayor and was sentenced to five years in prison. WSFA reported her prison time was suspended because she cooperated with the investigation and because of her age.
