RICHARDS SURRENDERS TO OHIO OFFICIALS - Gives Up Two Year Extradition Battle |
| (06/24/2004) |
|
Calhoun resident John Manis Richards, 40, has ended his two year fight to be
extradited to Ohio to face abduction charges. Richards turned himself over to Washington County, Ohio officials Monday after seeking at least two West Virginia Supreme Court appeals and other stays on his extradition. Richard's problems stem from a 2002 incident at a Reno, Ohio car wash where he allegedly was seen sexually gratifying himself in front of a woman and her daughter, after which the charges say he opened their car door and brandished a razor knife. Richards has claimed it is a case of mistaken identity. Richards was booked on two felony counts of abduction, a felony count of attempted abduction, a misdemeanor count of coercion and two misdemeanor counts of aggravated menacing. He was also charged with public indecency by the Marietta Police Department, after he allegedly exposed himself at McHappy's Bake Shoppe in Marietta. Richards appeared in a Washington County, Ohio court yesterday where he posted bond pending an appearance on July 12th. Richards has also been facing charges in Calhoun Circuit Court over allegedly stealing from several establishments. Earlier Stories:
