Judge continues man's probation on explosive-making chemicals conviction


YOUNGSTOWN — A man convicted of illegally possessing explosive-making chemicals in his South Side residence will remain on probation until next March, a judge ruled.

Judge John M. Durkin of Mahoning County Common Pleas Court today overruled a motion by Randall Telshaw, who has more recently been living with relatives in Canfield, to cancel the remainder of his probation.

Judge Durkin had sentenced Telshaw, 58, to two years’ probation on March 4, 2010, after a jury convicted Telshaw of possessing those chemicals in his Ferndale Avenue residence on June 29, 2006.

“He has led a law-abiding life with the arguable exception of this incident, and he plans to continue doing so,” wrote Telshaw’s Cleveland lawyer, Eric Norton, in his motion to terminate Telshaw’s probation.
