play

On May 6, the Court of Appeal of the Fifth District dismissed a case in Richland County, in which a man who tried to have the cause of his stepson's death, from “accidentally” to “murder” and “excited delirium” to “positional aspiration as a result of the reluctance of another”.

Although the fifth district dismissed the case, the judges said that the complainant could publish his lawsuit.

Marion lawyer JC Ratliff said on May 15 that he would be in the name of his client Donald Sold in the Donald Mold against Dr. Daniel Burwell. Burwell is the Richland County Coroner.

The stepson of form, Alexander Rios, died after he was suppressed in the prison of Richland County in 2019, and Mold made an application to the judge's judgment to reject an application for the cause of death. A hearing was never held at Richland County Common Pleas Court.

“In its invent of judgment, the court found that the applicable limitation period was ten years. The phenomenon was in 2019,” said the fifth district judge. “Since Schimmel can publish his lawsuit, the dismissal of the court without prejudices is not a final order for appeal. And because there is no final order for appeal, we lack the responsibility to maintain this appointment.”

In January 2025, Mold's lawyer appealed against the judge's judgment of the judge to reject an application for the cause of death.

Mold asked the fifth district's appeal court to override the judges' actions, and said that the court was wrongly when the plaintiff's complaint dismissed the knowledge of the forensic medicine and the cause of death for the cause of death, the news journal previously reported.

On October 18, 2024, the plaintiff's complaint was rejected on an explanatory judgment without prejudice.

According to the previously submitted application for appeals, the court submitted that the court wrongly: “Without a prescribed hearing, the plaintiff's complaint was dismissed for an explanatory judgment when the Ohio stipulated the Code 313.19 before the court was found, whether the relief should be granted.”

Correction officer Mark Cooper acquitted about the resumption

A five -year case, which was brutal for both sides, was finally solved in April 2024.

Mark Cooper, a former judicial officer in Richland County, found a jury, who was not guilty in accordance with Rios' death. The jurors do not guilty 2½ hours in resumption before he found Cooper, 57, not in two cases of involuntary homicide and a single number of ruthless murder cases.

Cooper and some of his employees had trouble containing Rios in September 2019, which broke out from his posture cell and ran into the book-in area. His family took him away from life preservation eight days later. The state, represented by Ohio's Attorney General, claimed that Cooper killed Rios when he was standing on him with both feet.
