Indictment handed down in Steubenville shooting incident
STEUBENVILLE — An 18-year-old was indicted Wednesday for a felonious assault that authorities believe triggered a shooting last month in Steubenville’s Labelle neighborhood.
Trey Michael Jeter, 613 Pine St., Steubenville, was one of 11 people ordered by the Jefferson County grand jury to stand trial.
Jeter’s indictment suggests he “knowingly caused physical harm” to the juvenile and that he attempted to cause physical harm to the teen by means of a deadly weapon.
Authorities allege Jeter struck the juvenile in the back of his head with a handgun “and then the juvenile came back out of Maryland Market with a gun and started firing” Feb. 12.
Jeter will stand trial in Common Pleas court on two counts of felonious assault.
Prosecutor Jane Hanlin said the 16-year-old also is facing charges, but in juvenile court.
“We’re just not going to tolerate this,” she said. “There’s no reason for a gunfight to erupt in the middle of the afternoon outside a market.”
Also indicted was Shaquille Savohn Wilson, 29, 27 Charlton St., Pittsburgh, on a charge of having weapons under disability July 5, 2022.
Authorities said Wilson was involved in a fight at Club 106 and, during the altercation, pulled a gun. The gun discharged and Wilson was wounded.
Wilson, convicted of felonious assault in Jefferson County in 2016, is prohibited from owning or using guns.
Collin M. Pulice, 27, and Kayla Marie Hanlon, 25, both of 506 S. Fifth St., Steubenville, were indicted on charges of child endangerment.
Pulice’s two-count indictment alleges that on or about Jan. 11, he abused a young child left in his care, “resulting in serious physical harm,” and violating his duty to protect the child.
Authorities said the 4-year-old “was severely malnourished and underweight” and had hematomas and injuries to her skull when the couple sought medical care for her.
Hanlon’s indictment charges her with a single count of endangering children because, even though she wasn’t home at the time of the alleged physical abuse, doctors “reported finding evidence of older injuries” and the child was emaciated and malnourished.
Also indicted were:
• Shari D. Tressler, 128 Reichart Ave., Wintersville, illegal conveyance of drugs of abuse onto the grounds of a specified government facility, aggravated possession of drugs and possession of heroin, all felonies.
Steubenville police took Tressler into custody following a Feb. 3 traffic stop in the 3900 block of Sunset Boulevard. They’d said when she exited the vehicle, they spotted a white, rock-like substance where she’d been sitting and when they searched the vehicle located a bag, push rods and a silicone container that also had a white residue.
The indictment alleges Tressler, 50, a passenger in the vehicle, knowingly possessed controlled substances, cocaine and heroin, and that she tried to bring drugs into the county jail.
• Kenneth Lee Dorsey, 54, 3729 state Route 43, Richmond, aggravated possession of drugs and tampering with evidence, both felonies.
The charges stem from a Jan. 28 traffic stop during which a passenger in the vehicle allegedly told deputies Dorsey had given her drugs to hide.
• Megan Michelle Revay, 124 Elenor St., Langeloth, Pa., illegal conveyance of drugs of abuse onto the grounds of a specified government facility, aggravated possession of drugs and possession of a fentanyl-related compound, all felonies, plus a misdemeanor charge of petit theft.
Steubenville police alleged Revay had controlled substances, methamphetamine and a fentanyl compound, in her possession during a shoplifting investigation Dec. 21 at Wal-Mart at the Fort Steuben Mall. During the booking process, jail personnel allegedly discovered heroin stamps concealed inside the 36-year-old’s dentures.
• Patrick David Hill, 54, 2795 county Road 39, Bloomingdale, two counts of theft from a person in a protected class and grand theft of a motor vehicle all felonies.
The “protected class” was an elderly family member for whom Hill had power of attorney. Authorities allege Hill drained more than $31,000 from the family member’s bank account, then took one of his cars without permission.
• Stephanie Nicole Miller, 33, 166 Culler Road, Weirton, attempt to commit an offense, a misdemeanor.
Miller was charged in connection with an Ohio State Highway Patrol traffic stop Dec. 8. Authorities allege Miller, who was seated in the front passenger seat, identified a substance found in a zipper pouch as methamphetamine and told troopers a crack pipe they found belonged to her.
• Austin Nathaniel Nice, 55 Campus View Drive, Toronto, failure to comply with the order or signal of a police officer, a felony.
Authorities allege Nice, 27, was fleeing police Jan. 24 when he crashed into a parked car, causing a “substantial risk of serious physical harm to persons or property.”
• Joseph Paul Burns, 48, 533 county Road 56, Toronto, one felony count of having weapons under disability, Feb. 4.
Burns allegedly shot a dog that was mauling his wife Feb. 11, however, due to a conviction for felony assault in Connecticut in 2015, he is prohibited from owning or using guns.
