NEW PHILADELPHIA - A judge has denied bail for a former Newcomerstown-area resident who is facing a possible life sentence if convicted of child rape.
Tuscarawas County Common Pleas Judge Michael Ernest decided Tuesday that 27-year-old David Levi Yoder of Westcliffe, Colo. will stay in the county jail while awaiting trial. Yoder has pleaded not guilty to two counts of child rape, four counts of gross sexual imposition and one count of having unlawful sexual conduct with a minor.
The alleged crimes spanned 12 years before ending in June 2019. The first rape is alleged to have occurred when the youngest victim was three years old.
