Sandusky County Sheriff Kyle Overmyer to spend election day behind bars

While embattled Sandusky County Sheriff Kyle Overmyer remains on Tuesday’s election ballot, he’ll be spending election day behind bars. The Toledo Blade reports a judge revoked bond Thursday for Sheriff Overmyer and sent him to jail as he faces multiple felony drug, theft, and record tampering charges. In August, visiting Judge Patricia Cosgrove set bond at $150,000 with the option of paying 10 percent. That was before special prosecutor Carol Hamilton O’Brien of Delaware County argued Sheriff Overmyer contacted and intimidated witnesses, contacted sheriff’s office staff, bought a crossbow, changed addresses without notifying the court, and wiped a computer clean before turning it in.
