Tommy Odle murder case!

if you want to know something about the case or Tommy personally just email me at kenhaswritersblock@yahoo.com or demonseed_just_add_water@yahoo.com and I can bring you up to speed. Me and my best friend, Brent Felty, had been Tommy’s best friends for about the last 6 months prior to the murders although Larry Owens was definitely Tommy’s closest lifelong friend. I had hung out with Tommy the evening before the murders and he came to the high school in his dad’d car moments after killing him to find me and brent to ask if we wanted to go party with him that night. I saw the blood on his shirt and he simply said he had a bloody nose. Anyways, whatever you want to know about him just let me know.

You say your mom was at his house an hour before the murders huh… I bet I personally know your mom. I bet she’d remember me. She didn’t happen to be his girlfriend at the time did she?

Peace, Ken Bauer

Oh, and the news articles have his age wrong, if memory serves correctly he is now 41 years old.

Whatever happened to Tona? She was & still is the love of his life. She broke up his marriage & then left him once again. Just sayin. Anyone know anything about her or the girl that married him??

Whatever did happen to his girlfriend at the time?

In November 1985, Thomas V. Odle of Mount Vernon, Ill., confessed to the stabbing and strangulation deaths of his parents, Robert and Carolyn Odle, both 39, his 14-year-old sister, Robyn, and his two brothers, Sean, 13, and Scott, 10.

All but Scott, who had been strangled, were stabbed repeatedly in the neck. Odle told investigators he had been smoking marijuana and ingested the mind-altering drug PCP in the hours before the attack.

Odle was sentenced to death. The death sentence was later commuted, and Odle, now 47, is serving a life sentence at Lawrence Correctional Center near Lawrenceville, Ill.
