Sheriff Jones Joins With Local Legislators To Protect Unborn

Butler County Sheriff Richard K. Jones has joined local State Representatives Margaret Conditt and Wes Retherford in calling for legislation to provide enhanced criminal penalties to those who furnish illegal narcotics to pregnant women.

Current law [ORC 2925.02 Corrupting Another With Drugs] provides mandatory imprisonment for those who furnish illegal narcotics to minors. In order to extend the protection of that law to unborn children, Sheriff Jones has proposed an expansion of that statute to provide mandatory imprisonment to those who “furnish or administer a controlled substance to a pregnant person, when the offender knows the person to be pregnant, or is reckless in that regard.”
