Welcome to the Corrupt Podcast! 

 

In March 2016, Joey LaBute disappeared from a bar in Columbus, Ohio. Joey sent two text messages to friends and family, ‘‘to help so goo5’ and ‘jnhstioj’. Just over 3 weeks later, his body would be found in the Scioto River. 26 year old Joey LaBute’s murder was ruled suspicious and remains unsolved. 

If you have any information on Joey’s disappearance and murder, please contact the Columbus Division of Police at 614-645-4545 or Central Ohio Crime Stoppers’ anonymous tip line at 614-461-8477. You can also contact Joey’s Dad directly at [email protected].
