New Rome, Ohio - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/New_Rome,_Ohio

"New Rome had long been the target of scorn and criticism from Central Ohio residents, state officials, and even national media, due to decades of harassing motorists in one of the worst speed traps in the United States and the internal corruption of its local government. In 2004, the village was ordered legally dissolved by a Franklin County Common Pleas Court judge, and its residents, land and assets were made part of Prairie Township."
