Family can post $500,000 bond and return to home
TweetCANFIELD — Scott Adair and his family are allowed to return to their township home, but not without a price.
Judge Scott Hunter of Mahoning County Area Court in Canfield ruled Friday that the family can move back into the Revere Run Road home but must pay a $500,000 bond, according to a court document. The total market value of the property is listed by Mahoning County as $284,300.
The decision came just two days after Judge Hunter heard a petition from Adair, 48, asking for permission to return to the home. In the ruling, the judge states that depriving the family of access to the home will cause hardship and homelessness.
“Homeless refers to one who ... lacks a fixed, regular and adequate night-time residence,” according to the document.
Austintown police seized Adair’s property and possessions June 12 as part of an investigation into alleged embezzlement from his former employer.
Austintown Police Chief Bob Gavalier said Friday the investigation is ongoing and the department is unable to release any new details about the case.

What a deal ! But hey wait a minute ! Five hundred grand would buy a much better house elswhere. He must be using a bonding company and putting up less. So they value that shack at $284,300 ? Very pricey!
I've heard a lot of rumors about this case, probably a lot of lies, but who knows. Anyways, I guess the embezzlement took place a long time ago, and it seems as if the man he was in business with (NOT his employer, way to go Vindy, it was his PARTNER) went broke, they were probably both dipping into company funds, and he said f--- this, I'm suing my partner. Also, is it fair to throw the whole family out on the streets like this, BEFORE he has been convicted of any crime. My thoughts are with this man, seems he has been duped if you ask me.
