Local woman may face charges in Schlichter case

Franklin County prosecutors are considering whether to file criminal charges against a woman who claims she was victimized by former Ohio State quarterback Art Schlichter. Anita Barney met with prosecutors this week to discuss her role in Schlichter's sports-ticket scheme, and the criminal
charges that may follow.  Barney has said she connected friends to Schlichter, who admitted to ripping them off with phony investments. Barney says she lost her life savings in the scheme.
