Great article Michael. I didn't know that Hales got the PO in the same county that mayor is from and that it's the same county he donated to for the K9 unit. I'm pretty sure that's not even the county he lives in. I've been saying for a while that someone should look into whether Hales had any ties to the Ohio judge and I'm glad someone finally is. I hope this helps lead to the bogus PO being overturned. I also had no idea the judge didn't even review the footage of this "violation" of the PO and only went off Hales' statements. I guess that means Preston and Cook didn't even have any input before they were found in contempt? A complete miscarriage of justice in my opinion.

Preston testified. I should have put that part in there, but it seems the magistrate- junior judge- found Hales more credibile.
