Republican Executive Committee Chair Laura Rosenberger - "County wide corruption involving the Sheriff’s Office and Prosecutor"



There are many questions that need to be asked. And SDVC has a ton of them. First, SDVC does not engage in politics, our fight is with Domestic Violence Offenders and Criminals and anyone or any agency that does not put the protection of DV Victims first!

There are many issues with the current Sheriff's office that need to be answered. A ton of Grant money has come into the Sheriffs’ Office.


February 14, 2018: The Sheriff’s office is one of six organizations to receive a $675K grant as part of an initiative to strengthen LE’s response to sexual and domestic violence.

July 30, 2018: OIC of Clark County gets $600K to train offenders, reduce jail numbers


March 15, 2024: Clark County has approved a $233.9 million budget for 2024, allocating large sums of money for the county sheriff’s office, building upgrades and community and economic development.


The Clark County Department of Reentry received about $500,000, part of which will fund a full-time administrative assistant position, department director Brooke Wagner told commissioners. This person will help Wagner with tasks like data collection and reporting required when the department receives grants, which will reduce the time it takes to apply for more grants. Once American Rescue Plan Act dollars are fully spent, the department will have to be funded by other means, like through the One Ohio Recovery Foundation, a nonprofit that works to address the opioid epidemic across the state.


There have been many smaller size grants going to the Sheriff’s Office and Clark County Prosecutor's Office (Which we will detail in full-display). Grantees are expected to report on financial expenditures and activities/progress over the life of the award. There is also Grant compliance. This process ensures that grant funds are used and reported appropriately to the government. It includes standards, rules, and regulations that govern documentation management, data reporting, and measuring impact of the grant on the community or purposes intended.


A ton of Grant Money had been secured through the Sheriff’s Office and Prosecutors Office to reduce Domestic Violence in the Springfield and Clark County community. As Clara Peller said so famously; Where’s the BEEF! Maybe there is a ton of corruption in Clark County, maybe not, but just show us how the money was spent, it should be easy.
