Serial rapist Roark to serve Kentucky sentences first
Franklin Roark, 48, admitted in Lorain County to two rape counts and multiple felonies. He will serve two life sentences in Kentucky before he begins Ohio terms, with 60 extra years possible if released. The plea avoided a life sentence in Ohio, and the case tied to a 1997 home invasion in Columbia Station.
