Good morning, Fairfield County. What should have been a relaxing getaway turned into a privacy nightmare for one family at Hocking Hills, where hidden cameras in a rental cabin's bathroom led to felony charges against the property owner. Jason Yard now faces up to 12 years behind bars after investigators discovered footage of 62 people, including children—a disturbing reminder of the vulnerabilities that can lurk in vacation accommodations.
Meanwhile, a prime 73-acre property at the border of Licking and Fairfield counties has hit the market with a $20 million price tag, potentially attracting data center developers to our region's growing tech landscape. And for the cat lovers among us, Logan's Pet Orphanage is offering affordable spay/neuter services this November, with registration opening on the 1st at the Logan Hocking County Library. The $50-80 procedures include rabies vaccinations—a small price for responsible pet ownership.
