Toledo Book Obscenity Appeal Hearings In Summerlin Case
In Toledo an appeal hearing tackled whether the book 69 Potion sold by Robert Summerlin is legally obscene. Prosecutors urged the Redrup standard be applied to curb obscenity, while the defense argued the state lacks authority to restrict words and morality rests with families and communities. The panel reserved a ruling after about 45 minutes of arguments attended by a sheriff, a reporter, and lawyers.
