Show Notes

In 2016, eight members of the Rhoden family were murdered at multiple residences. The crime scenes were all discovered on the same day, April 22nd, 2016. These murders shocked the residents of Pike County, which is in a rural part of Ohio. They also drew the attention of online sleuths who poured over the details of the murders while awaiting the murders to be solved.

Join Mike and Morf as they discuss the Rhoden family murders. The press gave several monikers to these murders, including The Rhoden Family Massacre, The Piketon Massacre, and the Pike County Massacre. The police initially thought the murders could be drug-related because some members of the family were growing marijuana. But, in the end, it turned out the murders were committed by people known to the Rhodens who were trying to get rid of a very specific problem.
