David Oliver Tab Duff was 23 when he was shot and killed in a Franklinton motel room in Columbus, Ohio, on March 15, 2014. The shooting followed a dispute over a lottery-ticket hoax: William Greene, 23, had paid $500 for what he believed was a winning ticket that turned out to be fake. Greene shot Duff during the argument.

After the shooting Greene and an accomplice, Ariana Ruddock, fled the scene. When Ruddock realized Duff was still breathing she encouraged Greene to return and finish him off. Both Greene and Ruddock were later arrested; Greene was charged with aggravated murder, kidnapping, and felonious assault, while Ruddock faced involuntary manslaughter and tampering with evidence. Ruddock pleaded guilty and received a 15-year sentence; Greene also pleaded guilty and was sentenced to prison.

Duff’s family remembered him as an amazing young man who loved his family and friends deeply. Does anyone have information about Duff or about the events that led to the motel confrontation?
