Bryan Accused




Charles L. Bryan, Jr. was arrested and charged with arson and other crimes resulting from two fires in downtown Wauseon in 2007.

One fire destroyed a major part of the downtown, traveling through 100-yearold buildings and gutting the old common wall brick structures.

Eventually, Wauseon was left with a depressing scar on the downtown, an empty lot where prosperous businesses once stood.

There has been an arrest, and Charles Bryan is charged . He has not had a trial. He has not heard the prosecution’s case against him. He has not had the opportunity to defend himself.

While popular street opinion may suggest one thing, only when the final gavel falls will we know whether he is guilty of the crime, or not. And even then, he will have a right to appeal the case.

As much as we would like to see it finished, it’s far from over.

The wheels of justice turn slowly. In due time we’ll know- guilty, or not.
