Filed in Warren County Common Pleas Court on: 0210912018 01:46 PM STATE OF OHIO, WARREN COUNTY COMMON PLEAS COURT CRIMINAL DIVISION STATE OF OHIO, Plaintiff, CASE NO. 17CR33 292 V. (JUDGE ODA) BROOKE SKYLAR RICHARDSON . ENTRY AND ORDER Defendant REGARDING MOTION FOR CHANGE OF VENUE This matter is before the Court, sua sponte, on the Motion for Change of Venue ?led on behalf of the Defendant. The Court, having reviewed the motion, ?nds the memorandum attached thereto is highly in?ammatory and prejudicial to the administration of justice in this case. The memorandum contains references to opinions of expert witnessescalled as witnesses at the trial of this matter, and directly quotes at least one expert report, which may or may not be admitted at trial. It also contains a self?serving recitation of facts, characterizations of the Defendant?s mental state and other information that poses a serious and imminent threat to the jury pool and significantly compromises the Court?s ability to conduct a fair and impartial trial. The memorandum states that a ?false narrative? generated by early reports regarding this case have tainted the jury pool. It is not appropriate for either side to attempt to correct or perpetuate any such a narrative, be it false or otherwise, nor to contaminate the jury pool with a selective dissemination of the facts in the case. This case is not going to be tried in the press. Nor will it be tried in the pleadings. It is particularly troubling that such an in?ammatory and prejudicial memorandum would accompany a Motion for Change In Venue, and the Court ?nds it more than a little disingenuous for a party to seek a change of venue based on pretrial publicity while ?ling an incendiary memorandum inviting additional and increased media attention. The Court hereby ORDERS the Memorandum in support stricken from the record and deleted from the ?ling. Filed in Warren County Common Pleas Court on: 0210912018 01:46 PM It is further ORDERED that counsel are prohibited from ?ling any statement, summary or other reference toThe identity, character, reputation, mental state or prior criminal record (including arrests, indictments, or other charges of crime) of the Defendant; unindicted co-defendants or potential witnesses; The existence, contents, consistency and/ or veracity of any statement given by the Defendant or her refusal or failure to make a statement; The performance, nonperformance or results of any examination or test or the refusal or failure of the Defendant to submit to examinations or tests; The identity, testimony, or credibility of any prospective Witness; The possibility of any agreed disposition between the parties either before or after the indictment was returned concerning the offenses charged; Any opinion of or discussion of the evidence, facts, including but not limited to opinions or findings of experts Whether or not it is anticipated that such evidence will be used at trial; The character and reputation of any defendant and/ or attorney associated with the prosecution or defense of this case; and Any alleged motive the State may have had in filing the indictment and any alleged motive any Defendant may have had in committing the offense charged in the indictment. Any information regarding the alleged victim in the case. If any of the prohibitions set forth above are necessary to a ?ling or motion, Counsel SHALL file the memorandum or motion under seal until the prejudicial nature of the dissemination can be determined by the Court. ALL UNTIL FURTHER ORDER OF THE COURT. Donald E. Oda II, Judge Warren County Common Pleas Court
