  • 2025 Ohio 2707

Syllabus

The juvenile court did not abuse its discretion in granting the State's motions for discretionary transfers of appellant's cases to the general division of the common pleas court for trial as an adult. The juvenile court reasonably concluded that appellant, who was 15 years old, was not amenable to care or rehabilitation within the juvenile system and that the safety of the community required that appellant be subject to adult sanctions. Judgment affirmed.
