The State of Ohio grand jury indicted an imprisoned Marion man for an alleged a rape a decade ago during the Wednesday session of the Common Pleas Court.
Randy N. Spencer, 36, of Marion was arrested on May 18, 2010 and May 17, 2011 and charged with one count of rape with a specification of him being a sexual violent predator, an unknown offense type. According to the indictment, prosecutors alleged he had sex with a child through force or threat of force.
According to online court records, Spencer has been previously found guilty on rape charges by former Common Pleas Judge Jim Slagle. In 2013, Spencer was found guilty on four counts of rape, all being first-degree felonies. Court records show he was sentenced to 15 years to life on these four charges, but they were ordered to be served concurrently which resulted in a total sentencing of 15 years to life.

When Marion County Judge Jason Warner s role in the hit-skip crash from last June became public, many residents questioned whether the justice system could hold one of their own accountable.
Online comments asserted that Warner and his wife, Julia, would get special treatment because of his position. A local judge would be treated better than a regular Joe or Jane.
The resulting photos of Jason Warner being led away in handcuffs on Wednesday should have put such concerns to rest.
Yes, the justice system can often be excruciatingly slow, but in this case it showed that it can work to ensure people in power are not given special treatment.
Our view: Proposed solar farm could be boon for Marion County
Marion Star Editorial Board
The proposal from Savion Energy, of Kansas City, would be placed on 970 acres off Marion-Williamsport Road, spanning from POET Biorefining to Ohio 423 in Marion Township. The solar panels would likely take up a bit more than half of that space.
Such a proposal may be new for Marion County, but it is not for Ohio, as many solar farms have been built or proposed around the state.
As with any new project, there are legitimate concerns about what it would mean for the area.
But we believe the benefits outweigh any negatives associated with the project. There are likely to be some traffic headaches during construction, but once it is operational any traffic to the site would be minimal.
