YOUNGSTOWN Mahoning County Prosecutor Paul Gains confirmed Thursday that his office decided against filing charges against former New Middletown police Chief Vince D’Egidio.
The decision was made last fall, after reviewing an investigation by the Mahoning County Sheriff’s Office and Ohio Bureau of Criminal Investigation.
The investigation began after New Middletown Mayor Harry Kale wrote a letter in November 2019 to Sheriff Jerry Greene stating that D’Egidio looked at pornographic websites. Sexual images were found on a work computer, Kale stated.
Greene said last year the Mahoning Valley Human Trafficking Task Force became involved in the investigation because “the age of the person in the video with the chief” was not known. Greene said task force investigators “determined the individual was not a minor, was an adult.”
