Romell Broom ( born June 4 , 1956 ) is an American man convicted of murder , kidnapping , and rape . He was convicted in 1984 of abducting and killing Tryna Middleton , age 14 , who was walking home from a football game in East Cleveland , Ohio . In 2003 , Broom accepted an offer from the state of Ohio for a DNA test to prove his innocence - however , the test results failed to exonerate him . [ dead link ] The clemency hearing concluded that the DNA report does not indicate an exact match , but does indicate that the likelihood of Broom being the donor is 1 in 2.3 million . Otherwise stated , eight or nine other black males in the country would have the same profile . Broom has repeatedly requested independent DNA retesting and a change of legal team . Broom also has convictions for robbery , aggravated robbery and four counts of kidnap of a male child . He was also convicted in a separate incidence of raping a female child .

A serial killer is typically a person who murders three or more people , usually in service of abnormal psychological gratification , with the murders taking place over more than a month and including a significant period of time between them . Different authorities apply different criteria when designating serial killers . For example , while most authorities set a threshold of three murders , others extend it to four or lessen it to two . The Federal Bureau of Investigation ( FBI ) defines serial killing as a series of two or more murders , committed as separate events , usually , but not always , by one offender acting alone . Although psychological gratification is the usual motive for serial killing , and most serial killings involve sexual contact with the victim , the FBI states that the motives of serial killers can include anger , thrill-seeking , financial gain , and attention seeking . The murders may be attempted or completed in a similar fashion . The victims may have something in common , for example , demographic profile , appearance , gender or race . A serial killer is neither a mass murderer , nor a spree killer , although there may be conceptual overlaps between serial killers and spree killers .
Anthony Kirkland ( born September 13 , 1968 ) is an American serial killer . Between 2006 and 2009 , Kirkland murdered two women and two girls in the Cincinnati area , following a 16-year prison term for the 1987 killing of his girlfriend .
Michael Madison ( born October 15 , 1977 ) is an American serial killer from East Cleveland , Ohio who committed at least three murders .
On January 28 , 2014 , 18-year-old Justin Michael Back ( February 13 , 1995 - January 28 , 2014 ) was murdered in Waynesville , Warren County , Ohio . US . Austin Gregory Myers ( born January 4 , 1995 ) and Timothy E. Mosley ( born October 11 , 1994 ) murdered Back at his family home in order to steal a safe from the house . The case received national media attention because of the discrepancy in sentencing of the two young offenders .
Donna Marie Roberts ( born May 22 , 1944 ) , an American convicted of being an accomplice to murder , is the only woman on death row in the State of Ohio .
Anthony Edward Sowell ( born August 19 , 1959 ) is an American serial killer known as the Cleveland Strangler . He was arrested in October 2009 after the bodies of eleven women were discovered by police investigators at his home , 12205 Imperial Avenue , in the Mount Pleasant neighborhood of Cleveland , Ohio .
Sierah Joughin ( February 11 , 1996 - July 22 , 2016 ) was an American woman who was abducted and murdered in Delta , Ohio . She disappeared on July 19 , 2016 and was found dead three days later . Her assailant , James D. Worley , was convicted and sentenced to death for the murder , in addition to over twenty years in prison for the kidnapping , assault and other related charges . His execution is still pending appeal as of August 2018 [ update ] . Worley had been previously convicted and imprisoned for the assault and attempted kidnapping of another woman under markedly similar circumstances , but was released after three years , and was not listed in any state or federal offender database at the time of Joughin 's murder . Consequently , the killing prompted the creation of Ohio Senate Bill 231 ( Sierah 's Law ) , a statute that provides for a searchable database of felons living in the state , who are convicted of specific violent offenses . The statute was signed into law in December 2018 .
