WEST UNION, Ohio -- An Adams County grand jury has handed down an indictment against the father of a handicapped adult.
Rory Jones, 47, of Stout, Ohio, was indicted for failing to provide for a functionally impaired person. He allegedly collected funds for the care of his daughter, while the severely disabled woman was actually in the care of her mother, his estranged wife, at a neighboring property.
In 2006 the mother, Melinda Jones, was charged with abuse of her daughter; shortly after a trial date was planned, Melinda Jones agreed to plead guilty to a lesser charge. After formally pleading guilty to failing to provide for a functionally impaired person, a fourth-degree felony, Jones was sentenced by Judge Brett Spencer of the Adams County Court of Common Pleas to three years of community control in October.
During the grand jury session of Oct. 23 and 24, the following people were also indicted for felonies:
Daniel Whitt, 22, of West Union, breaking and entering; Stephanie Payne, 35, of Manchester, theft; Christopher Land, 28, of West Union, grand theft and theft; Sean Keating, of Orient, breaking and entering; James Glenn, 34, of Seaman, illegal assembly or possession of chemicals for the manufacture of drugs; Keith Duffey, 29, of Winchester, illegal assembly or possession of chemicals for the manufacture of drugs, and possession of drugs; Trayland Sullivan, 19, of Winchester, breaking and entering; Charles Hamblin, 21, of Winchester, breaking and entering; Jayson Tackett, 31, of Manchester, operating vehicle impaired; Clifton DeMint, 68, of West Union, breaking and entering; Jeremy Collett, 25, of Winchester, breaking and entering; Herman Delk, 21, of Seaman, receiving stolen property, a felony of the fifth degree; Wesley Leasure, 25, of Seaman, receiving stolen property, a felony of the fifth degree; Kenneth Guthrie, 20, of West Union, theft; William Burson, 27, of Mount Orab, receiving stolen property; Crystal Rigsby, 25, of Lucasville, complicity; Joshua Combs, 27, of Peebles, grand theft; and Jeremy Collett, 24, of Winchester, was indicted on one count of breaking and entering and one count of vandalism.
