A tale of two sets of murders.
Here is a scenario: A married couple is brutally murdered in their house at night.. Their bodies discovered by visitors to the house. The husband was financially successful, with no known criminal record. Both victims had seemingly no known enemies, certainly no one who hated them enough to murder them. Police undertake a forensic examination of the murder scene. Police obtain video of an unknown man walking near the victims home around the time of the murders. The unknown man in the video seems to make an effort to avoid looking towards security cameras. He is dressed in a dark coat and a hoodie or hat, presumably to avoid recognition.
Sound familiar? No, I am not referring to the Shermans. I am referring to Spencer Tempe the murdered dentist and his wife who lived in Ohio and were murdered in their home less than 2 weeks ago. Within a couple of days after the murder, Ohio police announced that the case was a double homicide and not a murder suicide. Police almost immediately released the video of the man walking near the murder scene to the public and asked for the public’s help in identifying the individual. Within a few days the police, with the anssistance of the public, identified and arrested a suspect and he has been charged with murder.
The TPS waited four years to release their Sherman “walking man” video to the public. It’s been 8 years since the Sherman’s were murdered. No suspects, no arrests, no convictions, no justice.
Amazing how two similar sets of circumstances can result in completely different outcomes….
