CHILD ENDANGERING – R.C. 2919.22(A) – MANIFEST WEIGHT OF THE EVIDENCE – SUFFICIENCY OF THE EVIDENCE – JAIL-TIME CREDIT – R.C. 2949.08(C): Where testimony was presented that defendant committed a red-light violation while driving his three young children in a utility van without seats or seat belts for the children, with a gaping hole in the rear windows, and with broken glass and wooden pallets in the back of the vehicle, the trial court did not err in finding defendant guilty of child endangering. Where the trial court omitted jail-time credit for defendant's time served from its sentencing entries, it committed plain error.
