Jonesboro School Shooter Steals Debit Card:

One of the shooters involved in the 1998 Jonesboro school murders faces six more years on his prison sentence because he used a stolen debit card to pay $7.99 for breakfast at Burger King in Fayetteville.

Mitchell Scott Johnson, 24, pleaded guilty Thursday to charges of theft by receiving and financial identity fraud. He was sentenced on the fraud charge to 10 years – eight years in the Department of Correction and two years suspended – and 10 years in the DOC on the theft charge.

The sentences will run consecutively for a total of 18 years in prison. He’s already doing prison time after being convicted in both Benton County and in federal court. Now, he must serve a total of 22 years in state and federal time.

Johnson admitted Thursday before 4th Judicial Circuit Judge William Storey that he used a credit card he had stolen from the Fastrip gas station in Bentonville, where he worked, to purchase food in Fayetteville in January 2008.

Johnson was 13 in 1998 when he and Andrew Golden, then 11, fatally shot a teacher and four pupils at Westside Middle School near Jonesboro. That August, Johnson, then 14, and Golden, then 12, were convicted of five counts of capital murder in Craighead County.

Johnson was released from prison on Aug. 11, 2005.
