A Summit County man once facing felony ethnic intimidation charges took a plea deal on Thursday and apologized in the courtroom.
“The system is on his side, and I just feel like he will never understand being in my shoes what he has caused in my life and um it’s just not okay. It’s not okay what he did. I don’t even know if I could look at him. I don’t think he even cares,” James Griffie stated.
Kelvington drove up to Griffie and asked if he was waiting for the bus. Kelvington then left and returned to the bus stop with a shotgun.“I don’t want no problems,” said Earl Kelvington.“I just don’t want any problems,” Kelvington repeated while he held a shotgun on his lap.Griffie, fearing for his life, left and went to another bus stop on a busier street. Kelvington followed him there too, but Griffie quickly got on the bus and left.
Kelvington pled guilty to aggravated menacing and improperly handling a firearm in a motor vehicle. The felony ethnic intimidation charge was dropped. A judge ordered Kelvington to obey all laws for a year and gave him a 30-day suspended jail sentence.“For the degree of going home, to go back home and get a weapon and come back to where I’m at, absolutely not,” said Griffie.
