Keon Clark Prison Sentencing Postponed

A hearing to determine the length of Keon Clark's prison sentence has been postponed until next month.

Clark, 32, of Danville, was scheduled for a hearing Monday in Vermilion County Circuit Court to decide whether he will serve his Vermilion County and Champaign County prison sentences at the same time or consecutively. That means Clark could serve either two-and-a-half years or five years in the Department of Corrections.

The sentences stem from two separate felony convictions, one in Champaign County and another in Vermilion County.
