The former Hartwell resident was 53.

After graduating from St. Xavier High School in 1963, Mr. Ille enrolled at Ohio State University and obtained a degree in economics in 1967. "He traveled all over the world for the companies he worked with," said his mother, Helen Ille of Hartwell. "He was a very caring person," she said.

His economic and management skills were used at various companies before joining the staff at Carrier Corp. in Georgia. Due to illness, Mr. Ille left his position last year as a manager of purchasing for the company, his mother said. His body was cremated; a memorial service is pending.

Capt. waives appearance after arrest The Cincinnati Enquirer He was a Hamilton County corrections center captain, but $176 worth of clothing might have cost William Cronin his 27-year career.

Capt. Cronin, 48, is accused of stealing men's clothing from Dillard's department store in Northgate Mall, where he worked as a security officer. The store captured the thefts on videotape on May 4 and on Tuesday, his arrest report says. W. Cronin The Colerain Township W.

Cronin man waived his court appearance Wednesday in Hamilton County Municipal Court on a charge of theft in office, a fifth-degree felony. If convicted, he could end up in the same jail cells where he was a supervisor. He has worked for years in the Queensgate jail and the Hamilton County Justice Center. The maximum penalty is a year in jail and a $2,500 fine. Deputies charged him with a felony of theft in office instead of simply theft of less than $500, a misdemeanor.

The Hamilton County sheriff's office has put him on leave of absence without pay from his job while the case is pending. A grand jury will hear the case by the end of the month to decide whether to indict him. Possession trial delayed The Cincinnati Enquirer The trial of Frank Burton, 40, who is accused of possessing nude photos of a 15-year-old girl his friend allegedly met via the Internet, was continued until June 16 before Hamilton County Common Pleas Judge Ann Marie Tracey. In a related case, William Meister of Madeira has been indicted on felony charges. Prosecutors say he met the 15-year-old in an Internet chat room and later had a sexual relationship with her.
