Logsdon is adding Ronda Keabler to his argument after she claimed to have a social security disabilities check taken from her while an inmate in Warren County Regional Jail. “I didn’t sign a power of attorney or anything for the jail to use my signature, so I didn’t think it was right,” said Keabler. “There is nothing legal about taking a check from an individual and endorsing that check without that’s person authorization or authority, permission or otherwise,” said Logsdon.
