CLEVELAND

A Knoxville, Tenn., man has been sentenced in federal court to 19 years and 10 months in prison for traveling from Tennessee to Ohio to sexually exploit a 14-year-old girl, a U.S. attorney said.

David K. Turner, 24, had pleaded guilty earlier to a four-count indictment that charged him with sexually exploiting a minor, distributing a visual depiction of a minor engaged in sexually explicit conduct, coercing and enticing a minor, and traveling with the intent to engage in illicit sexual conduct.

The case was investigated by Canton and Massillon police and the FBI.

Hearing on closed club reset to July 15

WARREN

A hearing scheduled for Friday in Trumbull County Common Pleas Court to determine whether the clubhouse for the Forever Two Wheels motorcycle Club on Chestnut Avenue Northeast would remain boarded up has been reset to 11 a.m. July 15.

Attorneys Mark Lavelle and Jay Macejko were unavailable to attend the hearing, and the statutory agent for the club could not be located to notify him of the hearing, court officials said.

The temporary restraining order Judge Andrew Logan approved June 23 will remain in effect until the July 15 hearing.

The Warren law department requested the closure after the president of FTW, David Bailes Jr., was charged with two counts of murder in a June 18 gun battle at Shorty’s Place tavern in Warren Township.
