Eagle Country 99.3 By Dearborn-Ohio County Prosecutor Lynn Deddens, op-ed Prosecutor Lynn Deddens. File photo. On January 6, I attended the speech given by President Trump in Washington, D.C. As a member of the Republican party and former County Chair, it is no secret that I supported and even attended President Trump’s Inauguration in 2017 with my then 84-year-old father. It should be no surprise that I would have attended a speech in support of our democracy and our democratic processes. As an active citizen I have done so before and I will likely do so again. In this instance, the truth is my attendance at the speech is the beginning and the end of the story.
