The Murder of John McGhee - 645

About this episode

July 11, 2002. Bridgeport, Ohio. Just after 6 am, John McGhee's daughter, Alyssa, was awakened by a loud noise. When she went to see what had happened, she discovered her father lying in the doorway of the home and covered in blood. Detectives would discover that John's sister Pearl lived next door and that just before John's murder, she, her son, and his girlfriend were attacked by four armed men dressed all in black. At the time, John was working as an informant. Was his death a robbery gone wrong, or was he targeted?
