Description

On January 13, 1991, Roderick Clemons clocked in for his shift at a Church's Chicken restaurant in Akron, Ohio. The 26-year-old assistant manager was working hard for a promotion, despite his reservations about the fast food joint's rough neighborhood. Unfortunately, Roderick never made it home that night. And nearly 30 years later, we still don't know who brutally murdered him.This week, listen to Murder Sheet interview journalists Stephanie Warsmith and Paula Schleis about the case. They're the reason we heard about Roderick's case in the first place — they recently covered the murder in an in-depth article for the Akron Beacon-Journal.Stephanie works as a reporter for the Akron Beacon-Journal. After Paula retired from the paper, she started the Ohio Mysteries podcast. These two reporters are currently in the midst of publishing Unresolved, a Beacon-Journal series on Akron-area cold cases.Please read their in-depth article on the Clemons case here.
