Towns Appeals

Williams County Sheriff, Steve Towns appeals his case from the Bryan Municipal Court to the Sixth District Court of Appeals. He is also exploring filing an appeal to the Ohio Ethics Committee since they did not hear the charge first. Arguments have been made that there is no law that disqualifies the current sitting Sheriff in a case like this. He has already announced a run once again in 2020. A statement from the Sheriff’s office, says the voters of Williams County should have the final decision on whether or not Towns should retain his current position.
