Ex-Cop Rearrested for Violating Protection Order
3 Jun
Summary
- Former lieutenant arrested for protection order violation.
- He previously pleaded guilty to menacing by stalking charges.
- Weapons found at residence violated existing protection order.
Jason Etter, a former police lieutenant, is back in jail after being arrested on Tuesday by the Preble County Sheriff's Office. The arrest was for a violation of a protection order.
This development comes shortly after Etter pleaded guilty to one count of menacing by stalking in Montgomery County last week. He is scheduled for sentencing on June 22 in that case.
During the recent arrest at a Preble County home, deputies found that Etter had access to weapons. This discovery constituted a violation of an existing protection order, leading to his current detention. He is being held without bond pending a court appearance.
Previously, in November 2024, Etter faced charges including aggravated menacing and possession of a firearm while intoxicated. A plea deal resulted in the dismissal of several charges and a suspended jail sentence, placing him on probation.
