CINCINNATI -- Ohio's director of public safety will personally review the findings of an I-Team investigation that found many heroin dealers convicted in Hamilton County never went to prison for their crime.

Ohio Gov. John Kasich promised the review Monday, saying he was surprised to learn of the findings. Those put on probation in Hamilton County, rather than being sentenced to prison, include previously convicted dealers who had served prison time.

“I'm saying that we will look at it and get to the bottom of it,” Kasich told WCPO.
