On two occasions, the jury found, Robinson was guilty of a law passed in 2006 accusing him of selling illegal drugs near a school. Robinson’s home is across the street from the Poughkeepsie Middle School.Under state law, Robinson faced a mandatory prison term because he was previously convicted of a felony within the last 10 years. He was arrested for the 2008 drug sales last Feb. 8, about 18 months after he finished serving a 6-to-12-year sentence on a previous conviction for drug sales. Robinson’s attorney, Lee Klein, said his client maintained his innocence and intended to appeal the conviction.
