Ohio Homosexual Solicitation Law Declared Unconstitutional
The Ohio First District Court of Appeals ruled the state law barring homosexuals from soliciting sex is unconstitutional as vague and overbroad. Judge Robert Black noted the new criminal code no longer bans private consensual acts, stressing that people may communicate to confirm consent. The case involved a man charged with soliciting a plainclothes officer for sex.
