Judge Opposes New Ohio Criminal Code Proposal
Hamilton County Judge Gilbert Bettman urged the Ohio General Assembly to postpone enacting a new state criminal code. He recommended six months of study by courts and corrections officials before any action, warning the bill upends a century of settled law and could take 25 years to interpret. Bettman sent letters to four senators including Max Dennis and Michael Maloney, while the House had already passed the measure.
