CINCINNATI — A Cincinnati City Council candidate has been arrested just days before the election.
Kevin Farmer was arrested early Saturday morning and is being held in the Hamilton County Jail on a $60,000 bond.
Jail records show that Farmer is charged with burglary and violating a protection order — both felonies.
This isn't Farmer's first arrest.
Court records show he was charged in July with misdemeanor domestic violence and assault.
Republican candidate for U.S. Congress, Rosemary Oglesby-Henry, was listed as the victim in that case.
Those charges were dismissed, and then in September — Oglesby-Henry was arrested and accused of pointing a gun at Farmer.
Her attorney told WCPO Farmer made the allegation up and that there had been a history of domestic violence in their relationship — a claim Farmer denied.
