Episode 7 The Hopper Road MurdersOn December 9, 2006, 34-year-old Curtis Francis and 30-year-old Jennifer Burgette were shot to death as they slept in their bed in the home they shared on Hopper Road in Piketon, Ohio.Despite potential motives, and witnesses who pointed out obvious suspects, the case remains unsolved. The possible murder weapons and other evidence may have been located in a well on a suspect's property, but police efforts to recover the evidence from the well have proved fruitless, further frustrating the victim's families. The case has been side tracked by local police cooperation and ineffectiveness, and overshadowed to a great extent by the high profile case of the Rhoden Family murders, AKA 'The Piketon Massacre'.In this effort, the team is joined by Curtis's cousin Angie who has spent countless hours trying to get justice for Curtis and Jennifer. She discusses the hurdles and roadblocks that she has encountered, and walks us through the problems that have plagued this case since the very beginning. Anyone with details on the murders of Curtis Frances and Jennifer Burgette is asked to call the Ohio Bureau of Criminal Investigation at 855-BCI-OHIO (855-224-6446) or submit a tip via the Attorney General's websiteVisit the Facebook page about the case:Want to listen to this episode, and every episode of Citizen Detective AD-FREE plus get VIP bonus access to our show 'The Scrum'?
