Welcome to episode 21 of Ohio 88 where I, your host, Heather Wright, will discuss one of the most notorious individuals from Logan County, Ohio. For this episode, we will be discussing Scott Moody. It was a Sunday morning, May 29, 2005 when 18-year-old Scott Moody is said to have “lost it” and shot 6 people; killing 5, gravely injuring another, and then killing himself. According to the Columbus Dispatch, investigators never disclosed a motive for the massacre, although rumors had swirled in the small rural town of Bellfefontaine, Ohio. One of which involved him not wanting to have the responsibility of the family farm now that he was graduating high school.

But is that what happened? Is Scott the real shooter? What motive could he have had? From 2005 until about 2018; that was the story. That is exactly what everyone thought happened on that Spring day. But information that has been released since has coincided with details that the lone survivor of that attack, Scott’s 15-year-old sister, mentioned immediately after the shooting…from her hospital bed.

Please keep your mind open whilst listening to this episode. It will be a tad different than previous episodes on the show and perhaps will offer you new insight into this case as well as a different perspective. Perhaps Scott Moody isn’t the most notorious individual from Logan County, Ohio. But this story is just as, if not more important, than other subjects on the show - especially if he is in fact innocent of this atrocity, yet most believe he is the one who committed such a heinous act to his own family and close friend.

Welcome to episode 20 of Ohio 88 where I, your host, Heather Wright, will discuss one of the most notorious individuals from Defiance County, Ohio. For this episode, we will be discussing Judith Hawkey. Oakwood, Ohio resident Judith Hawkey was convicted of aggravated murder, insurance fraud, and four counts of endangering children, in her 2013 trial; where the judge sentenced her to life in prison without parole. But Ohio's Third District Court of Appeals ruled in 2016 that she should receive a new trial because her conviction had been largely based on the young boy's testimony. That young boy was the son of the man who was murdered in cold blood in 2003. That young boy was 10 at the time, and also the individual who pulled the trigger. _________________________________________________________________________________Support the show by joining Patreon - https://www.patreon.com/ohio88

As a quick summary; in Episode 12 of Ohio 88, we discussed the most notorious individual from Clark County, Ohio. Juan Kinley murdered his 31-year-old girlfriend and her 12-year-old son with a machete on Jan. 10, 1989. Kinley remains on Ohio's death row following his 1991 conviction.
Since being convicted and sentenced, Juan has been fighting to get off of death row. His latest writ of Habeas Corpus was denied in December of 2020. And at the time of the original recording - June 01, 2021...Juan Kinley was on a list of Pending Cases for the Southern District of Ohio. His case is in a state of abeyance...or temporarily on hold until matters are resolved.
So, Juan Kinley is still sitting on death row and being housed at Chillicothe Correctional Institution. He has one more chance to plead his case to the parole board. But what about the victim’s family? How do they feel about this?
In this special episode of Ohio 88, I sit down with Thelma’s niece and David’s cousin; Gracie. She describes exactly what this journey has been like for her entire family…but especially her father; Thelma’s brother. In speaking with Gracie, she told me how Thelma and David were, as people…not just as victims. She let me in on the emotions that she and her family have had to deal with over the last 30 years. And finally, she let me know what Thelma would have wanted others to know about her case and her decisions. Thelma would have wanted others to be more careful and to seek help if/when they are in an abusive relationship. The organization that she was scheduled to meet with on the day of her tragic and gruesome murder, is called https://projectwomanohio.org/.
