Councilman’s contact ban with family lifted

JAMESTOWN — A Jamestown councilman facing charges he left his two young children unattended July 20 while he sneaked into the home of his estranged wife was again permitted contact with his family on Monday, District Judge William L. Fagley ruled.

Chad A. Randall, 37, of 307 Shenango St., admitted to police he sneaked into his wife Joyce Christine Randall’s Luberty Street home at about 3:35 a.m. in a failed attempt to find the man he believed was having an affair with his wife, they said.

Fagley continued to Nov. 13 Randall’s preliminary hearing on charges of burglary, child endangerment and two counts of harassment and ordered him to contact Mercer County Behavioral Health Commission by Aug. 14 for a mental health evaluation.

Fagley allowed Randall contact with his children and wife, but warned him to stay clear of the criminal kind.

“If you see a problem arising, the best advice I can give you is walk away from it,” Fagley said.

Randall began serving on council in January 2004 and was elected in November to another term that runs through 2011. Council meets at 7 p.m. today in the borough building.
