Simon Leis was such a significant part of not only my life, but of our local justice system and the criminal justice system nationwide.
His willingness to fight for causes he believed in was relentless. He never backed away from a difficult battle,
But those disagreements never diminished my admiration for him or my deep gratitude for giving me my first opportunity in the law. He changed the course of my life, and for that I will always be thankful.

Took the night off last night to trick or treat with my grandbabies. I hope everyone had a fun and safe Halloween!

A tough prosecutor who held violent offenders accountable.
A commonsense judge who honors the law.
Joe Deters delivers justice.
Put Joe Deters on the bench.
It was a great honor to be inducted into the Hamilton County Prosecutor’s Office Hall of Fame.
That office was my life for 30 years and remains a very special place in my heart.
For lunch afterwards, I stopped by @Silverglades for old time’s sake!
It was a perfect evening with family & friends updating them on the campaign trail and the importance of electing judges who will respect our Constitution.
Nov. 5th is a big day for the future of Ohio. Vote for judges who will honor the rule of law & keep our communities safe!

The Ohio Supreme Court visited Jackson County this week for a remote session. Upon arrival at Jackson Middle School the Justices were presented with individually decorated donuts made by the students. Look at the video of the detail in the donut depicting the great seal. Amazing!

It was a special moment this morning swearing in my son, Jon, to his role as Sycamore Township Fiscal Officer. Public service has been a rewarding piece of our family history, and Jon is the latest to take this oath of office.

Another beautiful Opening Day spent with family and great friends including Senator Rob Portman and Republican Ohio State Chairman Alex Triantafilou. And an 8-2 win for the Reds to top it off! ⚾️

A big thank you to the 800,000+ voters who checked the box for me, @Judge_Shanahan , and @JudgeHawkins in yesterday’s election. We need that same energy in November to deliver a common sense Court with Justices who will respect our Constitution and the rule of law. @ohiogop
My thanks to @MikeDardisWLWT for talking with me about what this past year has been like on the Ohio Supreme Court.

DECISION: A state law allowing prison officials to retain beyond their minimum terms offenders who violate laws or rules while incarcerated does not violate the constitutional rights of inmates, the Supreme Court ruled today.

A wonderful day at the Court today. We unveiled the official portrait of the late Justice Andy Douglas.
He was a brilliant lawyer. A legendary jurist. And a true friend.
I appreciated Andy’s wife, Sue, including my family in this special ceremony.

When my wife and I were in Normandy 18 months ago, this day forever took on a different meaning for me. The sacrifice of those American soldiers and what they were willing to risk is beyond comprehension.
God bless them and God bless America.
It was a great day showing my friend and his family around the Supreme Court in Columbus. Congratulations to @OrlandoSonza and all that passed the February bar exam!
Congratulations to @ohiogop State Central Committeeman @OrlandoSonza on getting admitted to the Ohio bar as an attorney at law. Welcome to the Club! 🇺🇸🐘🇺🇸
