243 Words1 Page

MILLERSBURG — For the second time in recent history, a man convicted of making meth has withdrawn a long-ago guilty plea in an attempt to remedy a issue created by a recent Supreme Court decision, which defeated the initial intent of his original sentence.
Troy Lastohkein, 49, who has been serving an eight-year sentence at Richland Correctional Institution, sat Thursday in the Common Pleas Court Judge Robert Rinfret's courtroom. There he withdrew his initial guilty plea to felony charges of illegal assembly of chemicals to manufacture methamphetamine, child endangering and drug trafficking.

    190 Words  | 1 Pages

    This has to be one of the strangest and most surprising facts I read in this book so far. Earlier in the book (before this passage), Schlosser explains that some slaughterhouse employees take methamphetamine. Methamphetamine is by definition, “a central nervous system stimulant, C 1 0 H 1 5 N, used clinically in the treatment of narcolepsy, hyperkinesia, and for blood pressure maintenance in hypotensive states: also widely used as an illicit drug,” (Dictionary.com). Schlosser warns it’s dangerous to take drugs, especially in a work environment. But it happens, and these employees take these drugs to make themselves feel good and to improve their performances throughout the day.

  • Johnson And Sawyer Case Summary

    Problem 143 The issue is whether Johnson was discharged by the alteration of the check and what reply should the bank’s attorney make. UCC §§3-115, 3-407, 3-406, and 4-401(d), addressed the alteration of instruments, whether an instrument is properly payable, the issue of discharge, negligence of an altered instrument and the good faith rule. It also addressed which party is liable when an instrument is altered and when is the bank is responsible to re-credit an account. Specifically, for this issue, I will use UCC §4-401 (d): A bank that in good faith makes payment to a holder may charge the indicated account of its customer according to: (1) the original terms of the altered item; or (2) the terms of the completed item, even though the bank knows the item has been completed un- less the bank has notice that the completion was improper.

    The case of Pittonia is not a unique one; many times throughout history countries have made the transition from authoritarian rule to democratic rule. In these transitions, however, there are many differences in how a country can go about creating a democracy. Pittonia, for example, will draw inspiration from various nations around the world and use their precedence to mold a new democracy. Federalism studied in Canada, and the quasi-federalism of Spain, are influences for the benefits of a federal government, which include regional states having the authority to govern themselves. Bicameralism is chosen for its two-part representation system, ensuring that states are proportional represented in the lower house and equally represented in the

Once the victim recanted her testimony, Dotson contended that the recantation constituted grounds to vacate the original sentence and he should be awarded a new trial.

    Holmes County Assistant Prosecutor F. Christopher Oehl said he did not oppose concurrent sentences only because a guilty plea resulted in more efficient use of county resources, not because Schrock should receive some sort of credit for being similarly motivated in each of the crimes. Thumbing through pages outlining Schrock 's criminal history, Judge Robert Rinfret said, “To be perfectly frank, your record is truly one of the worst I 've seen in my life. It goes on for pages.” Reading through a list of criminal convictions for a variety of property, drug and personal crimes in several Ohio counties, as well as Florida and Washington, Rinfret commented on a seemingly endless pattern of criminal behavior spanning decades.

  • Methamphetamine Vs Meth Essay

    765 Words  | 4 Pages

    Methamphetamine and cocaine are both in the same category of drugs known as stimulants. Meth is completely man-made and is manufactured using common household and industrial ingredients such as over-the-counter cold/allergy medicines, drain cleaner, battery acid, gun cleaner, gasoline additives, muriatic acid, ammonia, lye, acetone and litter. Cocaine on the other hand is naturally occurring and is harvested from the leaves of the cocoa plant. While they are two entirely different drugs, both meth and cocaine have risks associated with their use, and have very high rates of dependence, abuse, and addiction. However, there are very distinct differences between cocaine and meth, in terms of how these drugs affect the individual both physically and psychologically.
