Wood County grand jury has indicted Jason Harle, age 28, and Alison Harle, 26, for sexual offenses
involving a 4-year-old girl.
On Wednesday, Alison Harle was indicted on two counts gross sexual imposition and rape with a
specification due to the age of the victim. Jason Harle was also indicted for a similar rape charge with
a specification. He was also indicted in January for a similar gross sexual imposition count involving
the same victim.
The Harles, both listed with the same apartment address on Napoleon Road, Bowling Green, are alleged to
have engaged in inappropriate touching as well as sexual conduct with the victim between May 1 and Nov.
1 of 2008. The time frame was identical on all the counts charged.
With the specification, both could face a mandatory life imprisonment sentence upon conviction.
Arraignment is set for the pair on July 13 at 1 p.m. before Wood County Common Pleas Court Judge Reeve
Kelsey.
They were among 17 people indicted on Wednesday.
Two other Wood County residents, Ryan Watson, 20, and Starla Floyd, also 20, both listed with the same
Tracy Road address in Walbridge, were indicted for endangering children: Watson with two counts, and
Floyd with one. They are also to be arraigned at the same time before Kelsey. A summons was issued for
all four to appear for their arraignment.

counts including felonious assault, endangering children and possession of cocaine.
Also indicted was Paul Garrison, 40, currently being held at the Wood County jail, on four counts
regarding a June 13 incident. He was indicted for felonious assault, abduction, burglary and carrying a
