Johnson was sentenced to serve four years in prison for his escape attempt.
Two other individuals were also sentenced in Bell County Circuit court on various charges.
Chastity C. Blevins, 29, of Coldiron, KY was sentenced to serve on year behind bars for an incident involving her forging a check and then attempting to eat it.
Blevins pleaded guilty to criminal possession of a forged instrument and tampering with physical evidence. Her case stems from a Nov. 23 incident in which she forged a check belonging to Brandi D. Hubick and then attempted to get rid of it by removing it from her pocket and trying to eat it.
She will receive three days credit for time served in jail on these charges.
