Hanlin confirms threats to her, her family

Source: Herald Star

STEUBENVILLE - Jefferson County Prosecutor Jane Hanlin and her family had to leave town during the juvenile rape trial because of threats made against both her and her family.

Sunday evening, Hanlin confirmed that threats had been made, and she found them to be credible. Hanlin said there were instances of threats before, but the number of threats of a specific nature grew.

"As the trial date grew closer, we received a number of them that seemed to be more credible than others," Hanlin said.

She would not divulge the nature of the threats and would not comment on potential suspects. She did say that the last threat came Tuesday, the day before the trial began.

...I want confirmation from actual law enforcement, not the woman who at first tried to talk the parents of the girl who was raped from filing charges!

Maybe further investigation may show the part she played in an attempted cover up, and her removal from ever practicing law again!
