LORAIN, OH – Tony Cillo, the Republican candidate for Lorain County Prosecutor, is under scrutiny following allegations of infidelity and misconduct detailed in an affidavit prepared by former girlfriend, Juliet Abram. The allegations paint a troubling picture of Cillo’s personal life and raise questions about his character as he campaigns for public office.
According to Abram’s affidavit, she first met Cillo in 2009 at a local bar, where he introduced himself as an assistant prosecutor. The two began a secret relationship, which Abram described as tumultuous and marked by manipulation.
Abram recounted instances where she was pressured into driving Cillo home after both of them had been out drinking. During their time together, she claims Cillo took advantage of her vulnerabilities, initiating sexual encounters with her in his home when his wife was away and, if the marital home was unavailable, in a parked car. In addition, Abram claims Cillo would often flash his badge in public as a means of intimidating her and others.
Abram also indicated she had brief contact with Cillo in 2023, when he worked for Ohio Attorney General Dave Yost. She described a strange encounter where Tony contacted her via FaceTime from a hotel room in Columbus, Ohio, while she was in California with her partner. During the call, Cillo asked her to watch him disrobe and shower, leaving her feeling confused after 12 years of mixed emotions regarding their relationship.
In her statement, Abram criticized Cillo’s lack of integrity, saying, “He led me on, claiming he would help me, but ultimately, it was all about him.” These allegations raise important questions about Cillo’s commitment to justice and public service. Critics argue that a candidate with a history of questionable personal conduct may not be fit to lead the prosecutor’s office.
In the midst of the election, voters are urged to consider Cillo’s past actions, which could affect his ability to serve the community with the integrity it deserves. As the election approaches, the implications of these allegations may play a significant role in shaping public perception and influencing voter decisions.
Using work, money and fulfillment as a tool is rape, not “misconduct” and infidelity. He’s no better than Vince McMahon and even if he wins he should be charged and disqualified. Juliet Abram should see justice.
Absolutely be charged! And is there more victims out there?
This guy has been investigating his opponents personal life for over a year. Tomlinson is not a married man and can date as sees fit, while cillo is married and running around on his wife. Hypocrite isn’t a strong enough word. Add in his involvement with sending two innocent people to prison and I don’t know how anyone would want him anywhere near the prosecutors office.
Well, well, well Tony Cillo… Hang your head dude. All the trouble you have started and now the wheels have turned. What a piece of garbage! You have a lot of nerve. Hopefully more will come out about your affairs.
Oh the hypocrisy of this man!! What he is going around saying about JD is exactly what he is trying to hide and on top of it he is married!!
