Denrich was charged this year with driving the getaway van in the September 2015 armed robbery of the uSpoon frozen yogurt store in Owings Mills. She was later charged in separate drug cases involving alleged prescription fraud.

Judge Mickey Norman gave Denrich suspended sentences and two years of supervised probation, State's Attorney Scott Shellenberger said.
