Order Online : "The State of Ohio"
This week on "The State of Ohio": State lawmakers consider what they can do in the wake of the horrible and yet miraculous escape story out of Cleveland involving three women held prisoner in a house for a decade. New data shows more than half of all violent crimes are committed by a very small numbers of offenders. Lawmakers are now working to target that tiny group. And more thoughts on legislation that would dramatically change rules on unions in Ohio.
 

ODOT workers busted for allegedly cruising the net looking for porn.
By Bill Cohen - February 28, 2007
Records at the Ohio Transportation Department show that highway workers viewed or downloaded porn several times last year in state offices and on state-owned computers. Agency reports show that computers were used to look at pictures of women at five locations around the state between February and October. A spokesman for the Transportation Department is responding to the revelation. Scott Varner talked about it with Ohio Public Radio's Bill Cohen.

Not all of the questionable conduct has involved computers. Employees at a state highway garage in Knox County kept lockers jammed with dozens of magazines such as Penthouse and Hustler.
