Description
Eight members of the Rhoden family were brutally murdered in one night — execution-style — in rural Ohio. For years, investigators were baffled. No forced entry. No obvious suspects. Just a horrifying, calculated crime that shattered a community.
But behind the scenes, a twisted truth was unfolding: an entire family had conspired to kill another family.
UPDATE: Ten years after the massacre, this case is far from over. Only one conviction — George Wagner IV’s — currently stands with a final sentence. Jake and Angela Wagner’s sentences have been thrown out and must be redone. And the alleged mastermind, Billy Wagner, still hasn’t gone to trial. The Rhoden families continue to wait for full justice.
