Warren County RTA thanks Judge Glaeden
General Division, Courtroom 13A
375 South High Street
Columbus, OH 43215
May 15, 2006
Subject: Sidaway Penalty
Dear Judge Glaeden:
On behalf of Warren County educators, I am thanking you for your ruling regarding Hazel Sidaway’s penalties. Two hundred hours of Community service will hopefully remind Ms. Sidaway that she was not fiduciarily responsible with STRS’s members’ money. It is too bad that Ms. Sidaway is not serving her jailtime.
Warren County does feels that Ms. Sidaway’s penalties are appropriate and lenient considering that she served as an STRS Board member for over seventeen years—with, it appears, a growing feeling of entitlement for each year served. Warren County educators are still trying to understand how Ms. Sidaway could spend over $200 for one beach bar bill!
Warren County teachers are anticipating further action by the Ohio Ethics Commission to bring ethics charges against those STRS Board members, STRS staff and STRS contractors who have violated Ohio’s ethics laws. In addition each of those cases will be followed assiduously.
Respectfully,
Nancy B. Hamant
WCRTA Legislative Chair
