New Williams Prosecutor Named

Kather­ine Zart­man has been named Interim Williams County Pros­e­cu­tor. Zartman’s appoint­ment comes fol­low­ing the res­ig­na­tion of for­mer county pros­e­cu­tor Kirk Yosick, who left to take a posi­tion as gen­eral coun­cil to a pri­vate Toledo com­pany. Zart­man, who has been an assis­tant county pros­e­cu­tor since 2008, was sworn in on Thurs­day in the Williams County Cour­t­house. The Bryan Times reports that Zart­man will serve as interim pros­e­cu­tor until the Williams County Repub­li­can Party Cen­tral Com­mit­tee either conirms her appoint­ment, or selects a dif­fer­ent

pros­e­cu­tor to fill out Yosick’s unex­pired term, which ends Dec. 31, 2016.
