Casino opponents called on Franklin County Prosecutor Ron O'Brien yesterday to investigate how one of their television ads landed in the hands of the other side before it aired.....
.....Each side of state Issue 3 - which would authorize casinos in Ohio's four largest cities - accuses the other of skullduggery in making and leaking the ad, which is now on television. The spot shows help-wanted ads in newspapers in New Jersey and Nevada as evidence that the four casinos would employ out-of-state workers.
Those help-wanted ads might be a dirty trick by TruthPAC, the group opposing the casino effort, said Bob Tenenbaum, spokesman for the pro-casino campaign....
Personally, I'm in favor of this new proposal for casinos in Ohio, but I'm just very, very tired of the ads.

At least 13 people were arrested in the Worthington area yesterday, charged with trafficking in heroin and other drugs.
Seven others were being sought after an early-morning drug sweep run by a Franklin County sheriff's special investigations unit.
Most of the men and one woman, in their late teens and 20s, were arrested by deputies and Worthington police at their parents' homes.....
It is apparent, according to the article, that heroin has become the drug of choice for some young people. How sad.
