The Ohio Supreme Court said Wednesday it will hear an open records dispute involving autopsy reports in the unsolved slayings of eight family members. At issue are lawsuits filed by Ohio newspapers seeking the full, unredacted copies of the reports on victims of the April 22 massacre in southern Ohio. "The Ohio Attorney General's Office looks forward to making our arguments to the Court," DeWine spokesman Dan Tierney said Wednesday. The other victims were Christopher Rhoden Sr.'s ex-wife, 37-year-old Dana Rhoden; their three children, 20-year-old Clarence "Frankie" Rhoden, 16-year-old Christopher Rhoden Jr. and 19-year-old Hanna Rhoden; Frankie Rhoden's fiancee, 20-year-old Hannah Gilley; and a cousin, 38-year-old Gary Rhoden. DeWine's office has said Christopher Rhoden Sr. "was operating a large-scale marijuana growing operation on his property," leading some to speculate the killings were drug-related.
