WARREN A second person now is charged with child endangering in a case investigated last month by Trumbull County Children Services alleging an underfed 5-year-old boy was being kept in the basement of an Austin Avenue NW home.
James Jethroe, 32, of Warren, on Tuesday pleaded not guilty in Warren Municipal Court to the felony charge. Judge Terry Ivanchak ordered Jethroe not to have contact with children and set bond at $100,000. Trumbull County Jail records show Jethroe was booked into the facility about 7:40 p.m. Monday.
Ivanchak will preside over a preliminary hearing in Jethroe’s case at 10:15 a.m. Jan. 20.
