Filing suggests court costs and fines could exceed $5M

Lucas County prosecutors are asking Judge Thomas Osowik to consider keeping Tom Noe in prison for at least 20 years and leveling fines and court costs of more than $5 million.

In a court filing yesterday, the prosecutors suggested that an 18-year sentence given to a Columbus lawyer for stealing from his clients was comparable, although they believe Noe’s crime was worse.

In addition, Prosecutor Julia Bates said yesterday she will ask Judge Osowik to make Noe’s prison term start after he serves 27 months for three federal campaign-finance offenses.

“It should be in line with the other kinds of situations that are similar,” Ms. Bates said.
