The case against a Cambridge area resident accused of harboring a runaway girl and giving her illegal narcotics was bound over to the Guernsey County Common Pleas Court on Thursday.
Jesse A. Law, 43, Cambridge, faces one count of corrupting another with drugs, a second-degree felony. The decision to bind the felony case over to the higher court was made Thursday during a preliminary hearing in the Cambridge Municipal Court.
The victim's age, 17, was a factor in the filing of the felony offense, according to Guernsey County Sheriff's Major Jeremy Wilkinson.
Law also faces a third-degree misdemeanor count of interference with custody filed by deputies in the municipal court for allegedly harboring the teen after she ran away from home.
