Identity thieves are targeting children across the U.S. (Shutterstock)
COLUMBUS, OH Con artists are stealing Ohio children s identity to fraudulently open accounts and receive unemployment benefits, Ohio Attorney General Dave Yost announced. A victim s age doesn t matter to identity thieves so parents need to utilize all the available tools to protect their children, Yost said. A freeze on your children s credit report is free and can provide that security to lock out scammers.
Yost said parents should proactively freeze their child s credit report. Law enforcement are investigating reports of scammers using children s identities to open cellphone accounts, utilities, credit cards and mortgages.

(ASHLAND, Ohio) Ohio Attorney General Dave Yost has filed a lawsuit on behalf of the Ohio Department of Mental Health and Addiction Services (OhioMHAS) to remove owners of the Mohican Young Star Academy from operating the facility for improperly restraining youth being treated for mental health issues.
The lawsuit,filed in Ashland County Common Pleas Court, seeks immediate injunction to stop Olga Starr, owner of Mohican Young Star, from operating the facility and transfer operations to a third-party receiver. The motion comes after a state inspection at the youth residential treatment center in Perrysville found numerous reports of resident abuse and a gross lack of reporting of the use of restraints as required by law.
Repeal of energy law moves forward

CLEVELAND The Ohio Legislature appears to be making progress on eliminating most of the provisions included in a corruption-tainted energy bill now the subject of federal investigations.
The Ohio Senate on Wednesday voted unanimously to approve a bill that removes the most scrutinized provision: a $1 billion bailout for two Ohio nuclear plants that were operated by a subsidiary of Akron-based FirstEnergy Corp. when the energy bill was approved in July 2019.
A new company called Energy Harbor took ownership of the two plants along the Lake Erie shoreline in February 2020 in a U.S. Bankruptcy Court deal with the subsidiary, FirstEnergy Solutions. Energy Harbor has indicated to lawmakers it no longer wants the subsidy that would have been funded by electric customers from across the state.
Attorney General Dave Yost’s Charitable Law Section found that Associated Community Services made nearly 56 million calls into Ohio from January 2016 to August 2020.
