In this week’s edition, part of a special two-part episode, Richland Source City Editor Carl Hunnell talks about how a 43-year-old Mansfield murder mystery was recently solved.

He is joined by Mansfield police Chief Jason Bammann, Detective Terry Butler and DNA expert Dawn Fryback in a detailed discussion regarding the brutal 1981 homicide of Deborah Miller, 18, found beaten to death in her West Third Street apartment.

This week’s episode focuses on why police reopened the cold case, how improved technology helped lead to a suspect and how law enforcement began to close in on the suspected killer.

Next week’s show will focus on how the alleged killer came to a violent end in Canton during a shootout with federal and local authorities.

Hunnell is also joined by Executive Producer Zac Hiser and videographer Grant Ritchey to talk about the news of the day, including a missing Ashland County man whose car was found abandoned in Bellville; a recent Bigfoot sighting in Richland County; early plans for a ribbon cutting for the new Sterkel Community Park for All; the arrest of seven people in a recent Bucyrus drug raid; and the launch of the sled dog racing season as Mansfield native Matthew Failor prepares for the upcoming 2025 Iditarod.
