Donnie R. Sweeney, 32, was shot and killed on July 22, 2004, in Huber Heights, Ohio, while helping Rhonda Short move out of her home with her children. Both Sweeney and Rhonda Short were shot by Rhonda’s estranged husband, Duane Short, who had purchased a shotgun and sawed off its barrel before going to Rhonda’s new residence and carrying out the attack.

Duane Short, 43, was arrested and charged in the killings. He admitted the killings at his trial, saying he had been searching for his wife for several days before the attack. In 2006 a jury convicted Short on all counts and sentenced him to death for both murders; the Ohio Supreme Court later affirmed the convictions and sentence.

If anyone knew Donnie Sweeney or has information about his movements in Huber Heights around July 2004, please share what is known.
