Ohio 88

Welcome to part 4.1 of episode 4 of Ohio 88 where I will continue to discuss one of the most notorious individuals from Hamilton County, Ohio. The one and only Charles Manson.
As a quick recap; In part 1; we learned all about Charles Manson’s early life and early crimes. In part 2; we learned about Manson’s adult life and the formation of the Manson Family Cult, as well as the members of the cult. In part 3.1, I discussed the life and death of Abigail FOlger, Donald “Shorty” Shea, Gary Hinman, and Jay Sebring. In part 3.2, I discussed the life and death of Steven Parent, Voytek Frykowski, Leno & Rosemary LaBianca, and Sharon Tate. These individuals are the most recognized and considered the main victims of the 1969 Manson Murders that were dubbed as the Tate/LaBianca killings.

This is the part of the story where I share with you; the details surrounding the trial(s) and the aftermath that followed. Now; although I have given some details about the “Family” members throughout the episode, I still may sprinkle in a few more details during part 4.

17-year-old Paige Johnson was last seen on September 23, 2010. She had just turned 17 and was headed to her sister’s apartment. According to her mother, Donna, it sounded as if Paige said “Jason” was picking her up...when in fact, what she actually said was that “Jacob” was picking her up. Her mother knew Jason and knew that she would be safe with him...so she said okay and told her to be safe and have fun. However, the person she was actually leaving with was a 22-year-old by the name of Jacob Bumpass.
Jacob Bumpass, to this day, doesn’t talk about that night. What he HAS said though, is where he dropped her off that night. He claimed that he dropped her off at 15th and Scott Street in Covington, Kentucky at around 1am. However, the authorities have indicated that his cell phone never pinged off of towers in that area. His phone DID ping at East Fork Lake (in Clermont County, Ohio) between at about 4:18am when he sent a text message from his phone. He is the very last person known to have seen Paige alive.
As of March 22, 2020; Paige's remains have been identified. Can you guess where? About 1-2 miles from where Bumpass' phone pinged near East Fork State Park. Her cause of death is still under investigation.

"She was kind of one of those people that you knew when you met her, this is somebody we need. This is somebody who is going to make a difference in our community." -Springdale Police Chief Thomas Wells
33-year-old Kaia Grant is the first police fatality in the line of duty in the history of Springdale. Kaia Grant was killed in the evening hours on Saturday March 21, 2020 in a crash that also injured Sgt. Andrew Davis.
A suspect was leading police in a neighboring jurisdiction on a pursuit. Officers Grant and Davis stepped in to help. I-275 is where Officer Grant and a police sergeant were getting ready to deploy stop sticks near State Route 4. Police say the driver intentionally swerved toward them, hitting them both. Officer Grant was flown to a local hospital, and sadly, did not survive. The sergeant suffered non-life-threatening injuries and was released. Police indicated that the suspect, 42-year-old Terry Blankenship, was taken into custody.
The incident is still being investigated by the Ohio State Highway Patrol and the Ohio Bureau of Criminal Investigation.

At the end of part 1, we left off right after discussing Manson’s release from prison in 1967 and he was headed to California to begin his life anew.
We've all heard about the Manson Family Cult...more commonly referred to as the Manson Family. But what do we actually KNOW about it? Other than the fact that Charles Manson formulated it and his followers killed for him? In a nutshell, we know that it was a desert commune and cult active in California during the late 1960's and early 1970's. The group consisted of about 60 confirmed followers...of whom lived a quite freeing or hippie-like lifestyle. THey would use hallucinogenic drugs habitually and many of the members were very young women. But what else is there to know? Let's find out, together!
In part 2, we will delve into the Manson Family Cult a bit more. We will learn who the key members were and what roles they had in the Family.

Today - October 3, 2019 is #JusticeForDJDay.
As many of you may already know; I (Heather) co-host another podcast called Status Pending with Scott Fuller. DJ was the inspiration behind the entire podcast Status: Pending.
DJ's case has had such an impact on me that I want to spend my 30th birthday today, spreading the word about DJ; will you help me?
________________


On October 3, 2016, a gun went off and a 911 call was made. Responding officers find DJ shot in the face. He’s deceased. Witnesses claim someone else in the home - a one-time romantic interest of his wife Brandy’s - shot and killed DJ. Some say accidentally, some say intentionally.
Members of DJ’s family can’t believe that DJ would kill himself, and some sheriff’s detectives don’t buy the suicide. But the state’s crime lab and a medical examiner disagree. And so nobody has ever been charged with the death of Donald Edward Fickey, Jr.
Since we released the case on Status: Pending, Amanda (DJ's sister) has been tirelessly working to ensure that the GBI looks into her brother's case. She has reached out to tons of podcasters as well as YouTubers and even folks with the Investigation Discovery Channel to share her brother's story.
____________
You can sign the petition to help bring this case in front of a grand jury! This is an important step to get Justice for DJ! You can visit change.org and search for “help support justice for dj…” and the petition will populate. Your signature can help! As of today, there are 23,080 of the 25,000 goal: https://www.change.org/p/help-us-in-getting-justice-for-dj-and-his-3-babies-justicefordj (petition). You can also visit Amanda’s Facebook page called “Justice for DJ” Or reach out to her on Twitter: @JusticeForDj88 Amanda has also set up a website where you can find all of the information about DJ’s case: https://justicefordj.com/
