In 2015, Columbus police offered the family of 14-year-oldChristie Mullins a formal apologizing, saying the investigation done into her 1975 murder was botched. At the same time, they closed her case, saying they are confident her killer was someone many people openly suspected for years – Henry Newell, the man who made news for "discovering" Christie's body and identifying her killer as a mentally disabled man. But Newell will never be brought to justice: he died in 2013. www.ohiomysteries.com [email protected] www.patreon.com/ohiomysteries www.twitter.com/mysteriesohio www.facebook.com/ohiomysteries Additional music: New Horizon - Aderin; Audionautix- The Great Unknown; The Great Phospher- Daniel Birch Warlock Grove Episode Learn more about your ad choices.
