As part of the agreement, he agreed to a one-year prison term without the possibility of early release, court documents said. He may also be sentenced to up to five years of parole, and will have his driver’s license suspended for at least three years.
He is scheduled to be sentenced Feb. 12.
The charges stem from the April 11, 2023, death of Mark Campbell, 44, of Jamestown. He had been elected as a Ross Twp. trustee in 2021.
According to a West Carrollton crash report, at around 12:50 p.m. Day was driving a 2017 GMC Sierra pickup truck east on East Dixie Drive when he changes lanes and crashed into the back of Campbell’s 2017 Toyota Camry, which was waiting to turn left onto Dryden Road.
The report said that the pickup truck rolled and came to a stop in the median while the Camry spun and came to rest in the intersection.
Campbell was pronounced dead at the scene, and medics took Day to Kettering Health Main Campus for minor injuries.
The crash report said that Day had cannabinoids in his system at the time of the crash.
