In Ohio, Can I Get a CCW License if I Was Charged With a Drug Paraphernalia in Kentucky 7 Years Ago?

Question by Robby C: In Ohio, can I get a CCW license if I was charged with a drug paraphernalia in Kentucky 7 years ago?
Im trying to get a CCW license, but when filling out the application, this question had me worrying:

(8) Are you under indictment, or otherwise charged with, or except for a conviction or guilty plea the records of which a court has ordered sealed or expunged or relative to which a court has granted relief from disability pursuant to section 2923.14 of the Revised Code, have you ever been convicted of or pleaded guilty to an offense under Chapter 2925, 3719, or 4729 of the Ohio Revised Code, or a similar offense in any other state, that involves illegal possession, use, sale, administration, distribution of or trafficking in a drug of abuse, or, except for a conviction or guilty plea the records of which a court has ordered sealed or expunged or relative to which a court has granted relief from disability pursuant to section 2923.14 of the Revised Code, have you ever been adjudicated a delinquent child for committing an act that would be an offense of that nature if committed by an adult?

Its not a drug charge .. but it is similar … what you think? Should I check YES or NO on the application?

Thanks for all your feedback.
I got a ticket for it, and had to go to court; where I did plead guilty for the charge.
also… Do you know if they drug test you when applying for a CCW?

The key word is “guilty”. It does not ask if you were charged with something. If you were not found guilty in a court, you are clear as far as this specific clause is concerned. An exception would be if you are a fugitive from the state of Kentucky trying to evade conviction.
