📰 News we're reading

• Appeals court upholds conviction, 16-year sentence for Roseville man (zanesvilletimesrecorder.com) — A Zanesville-based appeals panel has upheld a 16-year prison sentence for a Roseville man convicted of serious sex offenses, rejecting his claims of prosecutorial misconduct and trial errors. The Fifth District Court of Appeals found the evidence, including witness testimony and messages, was sufficient to support the jury’s verdict, meaning his incarceration and projected 2041 release date remain unchanged.
