"How can you do this to two women and an innocent boy?
Matthew Hoffman... is a coward." - Larry Maynard

 

[MsFacetious]

A Franklin County court granted a protection order for a teenager who said her father and step-mother were abusing her.

------------------

According to court documents, Sarah Maynard said that Tracy has kicked her, and Larry threatened to kill her. Sarah reported the alleged incidents to a school administrator.

Both released on bond

Larry entered a plea of not guilty to the charges of domestic violence and assault, according to court documents filed on Tuesday. His attorney submitted a request for a trial by jury.

What disgusting people, her dad and step mom are.

Okay, found the court records on this one.

They are starting to issue subpoenas to people.
He is scheduled for JURY trial on 8/19/2013.
She is scheduled for JURY trial on 8/20/2013.

Interesting note, there is an alert on HER... for a temporary restraining order.
There does not appear to be a temporary restraining order for him.

Her only previous offenses are civil/traffic from what I can see.
He was charged with domestic violence in 1997.
Other than that I just see civil, eviction, traffic, etc on him as well.

The charges are dropped.

Both Maynards were charged with misdemeanor counts of domestic violence and assault. A protection order was issued to keep Mrs. Maynard away from Sarah.

Yesterday, the charges against Mr. Maynard, 34, were dismissed.

Prosecutors and Sarah agreed to drop those charges because he completed court-ordered parenting classes, a psychological assessment and counseling, said Lara Baker-Morrish, the city’s chief prosecutor.

Mr. Maynard also agreed not to fight the transfer of Sarah’s custody to her maternal grandmother, Barbara Herrmann, Baker-Morrish said.

“That alleviates a lot of her concerns about testifying in court against her father,” she said.
Mrs. Maynard, 33, has a trial date set for next Tuesday, but charges likely will be dropped after it’s verified that she completed the required classes and assessments, Baker-Morrish said.

The comment.

:scared:

Am I misreading it?

 

[SmoothOperator]

Yes, I too am wondering about the comment...what does that mean?... I really don't understand..???

**Please forgive the limitations that come w/my posting via mobile ATM**

The writer doesn't mention anything about what Sarah went through. She sounds very pro-Larry & his second family, imo. I mean, what is it exactly that Larry went through? Bringing his daughter into his new family? Wow, oh, gee! Actually, I can see where there could be some friction. Still, I would think that compassion would override friction.

My heart goes out to Sarah. I'm glad that she is staying with her grandmother.

Knox County local here, I know the last post was from 2013 but I felt it was necessary to bring this up. The Sheriff in charge of the search for SM and the three deceased, as well as the rescue of SM recently passed away two years ago. From what I know it was suicide. Our county lost a hero two years ago and the events of 2010 had to have been hell on Barber and I am wondering if these events may have played a role in his decision.

True Crime Chronicles is doing a podcast about this case.
Begins Monday 12/16/19.

"Inside The Hollow Tree"
Inside the hollow tree: Looking back at a rural Ohio tragedy

And you can still access my Case Archive. It is one of the most horrific cases I have archived, maybe the worst because of where the bodies were located.

I remember this case. The hollow tree, the leaves all over the floor in his house. It was a horrifying case.

That should be a good podcast. Does it come on TV?
