Jerald L. Myers, 65, of Urbana, Ohio, died at his home on May 25, 2014. A forensic autopsy found multiple serious injuries, including blunt-force head trauma, facial lacerations, and bruising on the neck. The death was investigated as a homicide and marked the first homicide in Urbana in more than two years.

Jerald was a Vietnam War veteran who enjoyed time with his grandchildren and watching NASCAR and Ohio State athletics. His son, Christopher L. Myers, 38, was arrested and initially charged with two counts of murder and felonious assault after actions taken against his brother, Brian Myers, during discovery of the body. Christopher later pleaded guilty in December 2014 to voluntary manslaughter, complicity to tampering with evidence, and two counts of having weapons while under disability. Matthew Kerns, a 14-year Clark County Sheriff’s Office veteran and Christopher’s cousin, pleaded guilty to attempted obstructing official business.

Reports note a history of domestic violence charges involving Christopher. Multiple law enforcement agencies were involved in the investigation. Does anyone have information about Jerald or the family that could shed light on what happened leading up to May 25, 2014?
