WASHINGTON COURT HOUSE, Ohio — The Fayette County Prosecutor’s Office, led by Prosecuting Attorney Jess C. Weade, announced several recent felony case dispositions handed down in September. The convictions range from vehicular homicide and domestic violence to failure to register as a sex offender and drug trafficking.
September 8, 2026 Dispositions
- Dustin Pruitt: Convicted on seven separate counts of violation of a protection order following an indictment by a Fayette County Grand Jury. Pruitt was sentenced to community control with a suspended seven-year prison term and ordered to have no contact with the victim.
- Ty Brannon: Convicted of third-degree felony domestic violence with two or more prior convictions. Brannon was sentenced to 18 months in prison. Prosecutors noted that domestic violence charges are elevated to felonies if the offender has prior convictions or if the victim is pregnant at the time of the offense.
September 21, 2026 Dispositions
- Jaymon Flaugher: Sentenced to five years of mandatory prison time for third-degree felony aggravated vehicular homicide. The sentence stems from a February 1, 2026 motor vehicle crash in which Flaugher was driving and a passenger died as a result of the collision. Due to the mandatory nature of the sentence, Flaugher is ineligible for early release or judicial release.
- Ryan Byrd: Sentenced to 18 months in prison for failure to register as a sex offender, a third-degree felony. Prosecutors noted Byrd had informed the Fayette County Sheriff’s Office he was becoming homeless, but failed to follow established legal procedures to officially register as a homeless individual.
- Dylan Campbell: Sentenced by Judge David Bender to 5 to 6.5 years in prison (with 3 years mandatory) on various drug possession charges ranging from second- to fifth-degree felonies. Judge Bender ordered the sentence to run consecutively to a 3 to 4.5-year sentence Campbell received earlier this year in Highland County for drug trafficking. Campbell faces a total combined prison term of 8 to 11 years between both counties, with 6 of those years being mandatory.
