He was also found guilty of multiple 54-month firearm specifications and one Repeat Violent Offender specification, the release said.
Tornichio imposed the maximum sentence for each charge: nine years for the firearm specifications and another three years for the Repeat Violent Offender specification, followed by a mandatory period of parole on release.
Greene County Prosecuting Attorney David D. Hayes said that the lengthy sentence was a reflection of Creamer’s criminal history. Creamer was previously convicted in 2009 of aggravated robbery with a three-year firearm specification for holding up a store in Xenia, and has served two previous prison sentences.
The current charges stem from an incident on April 28.
At about 7 p.m., Creamer drove his mother’s vehicle to a house in the 100 block of N. Columbus Street, where two men were sitting on the back porch talking, according to a Xenia Police report. When the vehicle arrived, Creamer and a woman got out of the car.
The men told police that Creamer told them the woman was going to get her property from the house. He pointed a gun at one of the men and said that if they “had a problem with that” he would shoot them, according to the report. The woman went inside the house.
The prosecutor’s office said that the other man stood up, grabbed the gun and tried to disarm Creamer, but Creamer kept ahold of the gun and fired a shot at the second man.
The men told police that the woman then came out of the house, then she and Creamer got in the vehicle and left at a high rate of speed.
Police later found fragments of a bullet and a spent .45-caliber shell casing in the yard.
Creamer was arrested at around 11 p.m. at his mother’s house in Washington Courthouse, the police report said.
