Mercer County Sheriff’s Deputies and BCI Agents from the Attorney General’s Office Special Investigation Unit continue to investigate the deaths of Robert and Colleen Grube who were found on November 30 in rural Fort Recovery. We feel major progress has been made. Investigations of this nature take a lot of time and legwork.

Investigators have narrowed the time of the incident to a possible two hour window, but are still requesting the public to provide any suspicious information on November 29-November 30. It also appears that multiple perpetrators were present at the time, possibly a male and a female. Missing from the residence is a Toshiba laptop computer and there were no signs of forced entry into the home.

Investigators have conducted more than 70 interviews, followed up on approximately 60 tips, requested the issuance of 46 court orders and subpoenas and served 11 search warrants.

“While we still don’t know who committed this terrible crime,” stated Sheriff Grey, “we have collected volumes of evidence that I believe will eventually lead us to the killers.”

“This case will not result in an arrest quickly, but I am confident that the case will be solved,” stated Sheriff Grey.

The Sheriff’s Office continues to ask anyone with any information to contact the Sheriff’s Office through the tip line at 567-890-8477 or through the website at www.mercercountysheriff.org.

We appreciate all of the help from the public and the patience of the media while we continue to focus on this crime.
