SANDUSKY — The Erie County probation department will have to decide if complaints made against probationer-podcaster Ashli Ford are enough to knock her off the air.

Chief probation Officer Kelli Bias acknowledged receiving three complaints recently alleging Ford is filing false police reports and encouraging her supporters to bring heat down on those Ford views as her enemies.

One of the recent complaints was from the mother of a 21-year-old woman who died in a suspicious one-vehicle crash and fire in 2018. The woman said Ford continues claiming at social media that she’s helping her family even though she’s repeatedly asked Ford to stop saying that.

‘He’s’ her No. 1 fan

“Jeff Logan,” a pseudonym used by a No. 1 fan of Ford’s, continues posting claims that Ford’s upcoming trial on forgery and mortgage fraud charges is “malicious,” and that Ford has “proven time and again, she’s got the goods” on Erie County Prosecutor Kevin Baxter.
