Fremont mayor critical of court's leniency of man who threatened him

FREMONT – Judge number three took the bench at the Fremont Municipal Court Nov. 3 in the case of the man who left a threatening voicemail for Fremont Mayor Danny Sanchez . The man who said Sanchez was on a hit list paced back and forth outside the courtroom door, periodically sitting on the bench with victims and other offenders. His sentencing for aggravated menacing and telecommunications harassment, both first-degree misdemeanors, was to take place Nov. 3. The man pleaded guilty to the charges Sept. 15. Sentencing was delayed for at least 30 days for a previously ordered pre-sentence investigation. The probation department that conducts them was not informed of the court order, so did not conduct the investigation. Under Marsy’s Law, also known as the Ohio Crime Victims’ Bill of Rights, the probation officers include a victim’s impact statement outlining how the crime affected the victim's life. Meanwhile, an increasingly irritated Sanchez stood outside the courthouse giving a laundry list of problems with the case and argued some probable violations of Marsy's Law occurred. “I don’t think I’ve been represented fairly in this case as a victim,” Sanchez said. “I don’t feel I deserve any special treatment, but I

A Romanesque Revival castle of stone sits in Ohio, and a famous movie about hope was filmed inside it. Its doors first opened in 1886. I like that a building this grand can be a quick detour from the highway. Many drivers never slow down to look. The cell house...

Data center restrictions gain momentum across northwest Ohio

Successful citizen-led ballot initiatives limiting the size of data centers have led to a flurry of activity in other Toledo-area municipalities since the Nov. 3 election, including Whitehouse, Waterville, and Rossford. Volunteers turned over signed petitions for those three communities on Thursday, Friday, and Monday, respectively. They claim they gathered more than enough signatures for the Lucas County Board of Elections to certify them and require each of those municipalities to put similar ballot issues in front of voters in those communities. Next up are Perrysburg, Maumee, and Bowling Green. Toledo, which would need many more signatures because of its size, could eventually be targeted as well, said Lyn Cox, county lead for Conserve Ohio’s grassroots efforts in Lucas and Wood counties. Petitions have come back from printers for Perrysburg and Maumee, and are expected to be available in the next day or two for Bowling Green, she said. In the coming weeks, citizen-led ballot initiatives also will begin in Sylvania and Holland, Ms. Cox said. The activity comes in the aftermath of Oregon’s overwhelming vote in favor of a charter amendment that bans the construction of data centers that require 25 megawatts or more of electricity, which eliminates hyperscale
