Jack Lynn Jackie Myers, 51, and his wife Linda Myers, 55, were shot to death at close range in their Darke County, Ohio home on March 27, 2003. Their bodies were found the next morning by their 4-year-old great-grandson, Dameon Huffman, who ran to a nearby church for help. Nothing of value was taken from the house, and investigators reported a shoe print near a removed basement window and traces of blood in Dameon’s bedroom. A neighbor saw an unfamiliar van in the area around the time of the slayings.

Jack had two adult sons from a previous marriage, Gregg, 25, and Travis, 28. Prosecutors say Gregg had financial problems and a hostile relationship with his father; a witness told police Gregg had asked about getting a shotgun to kill his father and stepmother, and Gregg purchased shotgun ammunition two days before the murders. A 12-gauge shotgun was recovered from the Stillwater River along with a green tracksuit and shoes matching the print at the scene. Gregg Myers was arrested, convicted by a jury in April 2004 of two counts of aggravated murder and received life without parole plus an extra five-year term for aggravated burglary.

Did anyone in the community have contact with Jack or Linda in the days before March 27 that might shed more light on what happened?
