Suspect Sentenced In Counterfeiting Case

It’s just over three years in jail for one of the two people taking a plea deal to counterfeiting charges in Moses Lake. Federal prosecutors say Artem Kirichenko of Puyallup pleaded guilty to the April 2018 incident where he and Emily Coates used fake money at a number of Moses Lake businesses. Kirichenko will also be on three years of supervised release after his sentence. Coates already took a plea deal.
