COLUMBUS (AP) — An attorney for a former Ohio television weatherman who has pleaded guilty to child pornography-related charges has filed a motion arguing he shouldn’t go to prison.
The Columbus Dispatch reports 60-year-old Mike Davis faces sentencing March 25 after pleading guilty in late January to three counts of pandering sexually oriented material and one count of possession of sexually oriented material involving a minor.
Davis was a longtime meteorologist for WBNS-TV in Columbus. He was fired in September.
Defense attorney Terry Sherman wrote Davis shouldn’t be sent to prison because he never created pornographic images or harmed children.
