Episode Overview

This gripping episode examines the haunting 2015 murder of Heather Bogle in Sandusky County, Ohio, and scrutinizes the police investigation that both botched the case and nearly ruined innocent lives. It unpacks not only the details of Heather’s tragic death but also the repercussions of bad investigative work, including the wrongful suspicion and public shaming of three innocent people. The episode highlights how a flawed investigation delayed justice, and how determined new leadership, modern forensic tools, and relentless reporting finally brought the real killer, Daniel Myers, to justice. Themes of vulnerability, accountability in law enforcement, and the cost of tunnel vision echo throughout.

Key Discussion Points & Insights

The Disappearance and Discovery of Heather Bogle

• Heather’s Last Day (02:20–04:50)

  • Heather Bogle, a hardworking single mom, finished her midnight shift at Whirlpool and disappeared without a trace.
  • Her absence from picking up her daughter triggered an immediate search by family and local law enforcement.
  • Her car was later found, and the trunk revealed a brutal scene: Heather’s tortured and murdered body left in a fetal position.

  “She was last seen leaving the parking lot of the Whirlpool Corporation and then she disappeared.”
  — Detective Sean O’Connell [02:44]

  “They found a beautiful young woman who had been savagely beaten and murdered.”
  — Sheriff Chris Hilton [04:50]

• Crime Scene Details (05:14–06:26)

  • Details emerge: Heather suffered defensive injuries, her hair was hacked off, and her fingernails cut to destroy DNA.
  • The crime was committed with a disturbing level of care and cruelty.

  “Looked like it had been posed to create a certain effect. Her hands were coiled up. It looked like a child sleeping...”
  — Prosecutor Tim Braun [05:54]

The First Investigation and Wrongful Accusations

• Tunnel Vision: Early Suspects (07:24–11:14)

  • Detective Sean O’Connell zeroed in on Heather’s ex-girlfriend, Carmela Badillo, and then local resident Kiana Bore, based on circumstantial evidence and social media posts.
  • O’Connell connected unrelated Facebook posts and a red Mickey Mouse t-shirt Kiana had allegedly worn to the crime.

  “Absolutely, yeah. From her demeanor, from her reluctancy on wanting to talk to us? Yeah, absolutely.”
  — Detective Sean O’Connell on Kiana Bore [08:49]

  • The circle of suspicion extended to Omar Satchel and K. Re Jeffrey, but O’Connell admitted he couldn’t even articulate a motive.

  “I don't know what their motive would have been.”
  — Detective Sean O’Connell [11:08]

• The Cost of a Faulty Investigation (12:54–15:21)

  • Kiana Bore described losing her job, home, and safety as the police, backed by unreliable evidence, raided her life.

  “I'm wheeling a resident out ... and the whole all the detectives ... come in there, guns out.”
  — Kiana Bore [13:32]

  “He never did that because he wasn't interested in ruling me out. He was just interested in making me guilty.”
  — Kiana Bore [14:12]

  • Reporter Matt Westerholt of the Sandusky Register cast the investigation as "botched" and persistently published allegations of police misconduct.

  “We probably documented a half dozen different cases where the families involved ... were complaining bitterly about how they were treated by law enforcement.”
  — Matt Westerholt [16:19]

• Ignoring the DNA (17:03–17:59)

  • DNA under Heather’s cuticle didn’t match any primary suspects, but O’Connell excluded this from his indictment report.
  • Within a week, O’Connell was pulled from the case and later indicted for misconduct.

Law Enforcement’s Reckoning

• Consequences for the Investigators (18:06–20:15)

  • Sheriff Overmeyer, O’Connell’s superior, was convicted for stealing drugs; the department’s credibility tanked.
  • The State Bureau of Investigations found O’Connell attempted to indict three innocent people using falsified evidence.

  “He attempted to indict people for murder. That had absolutely nothing to do with it.”
  — Sheriff Chris Hilton [18:48]

  • O’Connell was charged with four felonies including tampering with evidence.

The Case Reopened: Modern Detective Work

• Sheriff Chris Hilton Starts Over (20:47–23:17)

  • New sheriff Chris Hilton and his team cleared all prior suspects and committed to working "from scratch," focusing on actual leads.

  "I just knew it had to be done right ... everybody is a suspect until we can eliminate him."
  — Sheriff Chris Hilton [20:53]

• Breakthrough with Technology (22:56–23:37)

  • Using GPS data from Heather’s phone, investigators pinpointed her last visit: the trailer of Whirlpool coworker Daniel Myers.
  • Myers claimed not to know Heather, but the GPS and timeline contradicted his story. He refused DNA testing, raising red flags.

  "He was cooperative, but not overly. He kind of distanced himself from knowing Heather."
  — Sheriff Chris Hilton [23:45]

• DNA and Physical Evidence (24:36–25:26, 27:11–27:27)

  • Myers’ DNA confirmed he struggled with Heather.
  • Searches of his trailer turned up new flooring (replacing blood-stained sections), women’s underwear in a safe, and evidence of sexual violence.

  “My major came into my office and he says, sheriff, that DNA belongs to Danny Myers.”
  — Sheriff Chris Hilton [25:12]

The Pattern of Predation and Prior Missed Opportunity

• Serial Offender Profile (27:27–29:43)

  • Myers had a pattern: ten more women alleged rape after his arrest. He preyed on vulnerable women who were less likely to be believed.

  “He had videos of himself with women ... He was very disturbing when it comes to his sexual fetishes.”
  — Sheriff Chris Hilton [27:41]

• Was Myers a Serial Killer? (32:05–33:12)

  • Family members of another possible victim, Leanne Sluder (Myers’ ex and mother of his son), suspect he killed her in 2009—a death ruled a suicide amid police sloppiness.

  “If they had done gun residue tests on Daniel Meyer's hands in that 2009 investigation, they would know unequivocally whether he had shot that weapon.”
  — Matt Westerholt [35:08]

Justice and Restitution

• Sean O’Connell Faces Justice (39:30–41:57)

  • O’Connell pleads guilty to tampering with evidence, is sentenced to two years, and receives emotional confrontations from his victims.

  “I have pretty much lost every single thing that I've had because of this man. And I'm still trying to get it back.”
  — Kiana Bore [41:15]

• Prosecutor’s Relentless Challenge (43:01–43:39)

  • Prosecutor Tim Braun describes the challenge of bringing Myers to trial given O’Connell’s tainted work.
  • Before trial, Myers attempts a suicide, then pleads guilty to avoid the death penalty.

  “In court, we had more than enough to prove it beyond a reasonable doubt.”
  — Prosecutor Tim Braun [43:01]

• Closure and Reflection (44:38–44:45)

  • With the real killer imprisoned for life, Sandusky County and Heather’s friends and family find some closure.
  • Both the cost of justice denied and the value of getting it right are left resonating.

  “Sanuski county is a great place. I think it's a little better now, and I'm proud of that.”
  — Sheriff Chris Hilton [44:38]

[Sheriff Chris Hilton]

Sandusky county is the kind of place where you would want to raise your kids. It's very warm, it's very welcoming. It's very rural. My name is Chris Hilton. I am the sheriff of Sandusky county in northwest Ohio. This is not the kind of place where a crime like this occurs. It's the place that something like this is a shock.

[Detective Sean O'Connell]

In April of 2015, Heather Bogle went to work at the Whirlpool Corporation located in Clyde, Ohio. My name is Sean o'. Connell. I was the lead investigator of the Heather Vogel investigation.

[Sheriff Chris Hilton]

She worked midnights, which means she would clock in roughly at 10, 10:30 in the evening. She worked her shift and she clocked out at approximately 6:17 that following morning.

[Detective Sean O'Connell]

She was last seen leaving the parking lot of the Whirlpool Corporation and then she disappeared.

[Sheriff Chris Hilton]

She failed to pick up her daughter from school and this was like clockwork. She knew never failed to pick up her daughter.

[Narrator/Investigator]

The Sandusky County Sheriff's Department tonight is working to solve a mystery. Where is 28 year old heather Bogle?

[Sheriff Chris Hilton]

Her family is the one that they. Within hours they were posting signs, putting things on Facebook and all the other types of social media.

[Narrator/Host]

I think somebody has her and they need to bring her home.

[Narrator/Investigator]

Why would they want to kidnap her?

[Narrator/Host]

I don't know.

[Sheriff Chris Hilton]

And as the minutes and hours went by and people became more and more worried because they could not find her.

[Narrator/Host]

She doesn't have any enemies that we know of. We just have no idea how this could happen.

[Prosecutor Tim Braun]

She had a lot of chaos going on. A lot of things were going on in her personal life. She was vulnerable at that point.

[Narrator/Host]

She's an amazing woman and she's always

[Kiana Bore]

there for me and we want her

[Narrator/Host]

to know we're here for her.

[Prosecutor Tim Braun]

This is solved the old fashioned way. Bit by bit, tracking down every potential lead because you never know when that lead turns into a break.

[Detective Sean O'Connell]

The day after she disappeared, I get a phone call from the sheriff's office that Heather's vehicle had been located. I had roll patrol unlock the vehicle and then we popped the trunk and we saw something that we did not expect to see.

[Sheriff Chris Hilton]

I don't think anybody had a clue about the mystery, the intrigue and the story that was going to come out of the opening of that trunk. A lot of times in law enforcement we look at things and we try not to see them for what they are. It's almost as if it's not real,

[Narrator/Investigator]

but this one was different, says Sheriff Chris Hilton. What they found inside the trunk of Heather Bogle's car was painfully real. What did they find in the trunk?

[Sheriff Chris Hilton]

They found a beautiful young woman who had been savagely beaten and murdered.

[Narrator/Investigator]

That beautiful young woman was Heather Bogle.

[Sheriff Chris Hilton]

When you know what she looked like when you saw the pictures of her and to see what was in the trunk of the car, it was as if they were two completely different things. And when you look at that kind of stuff, it sinks in its own.

[Narrator/Investigator]

Her wounds told a harrowing story of torture. Unbelievably awful and grit, says prosecutor Tim Braun.

[Prosecutor Tim Braun]

A lot of defensive wounds on the hand for blocking, bringing your hands up, protecting.

[Narrator/Investigator]

What did that tell you?

[Prosecutor Tim Braun]

Told me she'd fought. That she was physically overpowered by someone. Beaten down and then handcuffed.

[Narrator/Investigator]

Cause of death, Two shots to the

[Prosecutor Tim Braun]

back, penetrating vital organs in her chest.

[Narrator/Investigator]

Heather's body was placed in the trunk of her car, curled up in a semi fetal position wearing an oversized Mickey Mouse T shirt.

[Prosecutor Tim Braun]

Looked like it had been posed to create a certain effect. Her hands were coiled up. It looked like a child sleeping to some degree.

[Narrator/Investigator]

Heather's hair had been chopped off at the scalp.

[Sheriff Chris Hilton]

Imagine taking like a pocket knife and just going like this with it, just picking it up and chopping it off.

[Narrator/Investigator]

And her fingernails cut down to the cuticles. Possibly her murderer's attempt to destroy DNA, says Braun.

[Prosecutor Tim Braun]

So somebody had cleaned her up extremely carefully after she died.

[Narrator/Investigator]

Who would want to do this to her?

[Prosecutor Tim Braun]

A psychopath?

[Detective Sean O'Connell]

Lord, we're praying for wisdom and understanding, Lord God. And I pray for the family of Heather this evening.

[Sheriff Chris Hilton]

Father.

[Narrator/Host]

I pray for her friends.

[Narrator/Investigator]

Shocked, frightened and grief struck, the locals turned out in droves, demanding justice for Heather Bogle and holding benefits for her five year old daughter, Mackenzie. The woman who walks out of the Whirlpool factory at 6:17am Heather Bogle, who is she?

[Sheriff Chris Hilton]

A 28 year old single mother who worked hard at that factory to provide a wonderful life for her daughter.

[Narrator/Investigator]

She was well liked with dreams for a better life. Heather had just finished nursing school.

[Sheriff Chris Hilton]

She wanted something better than working at Whirlpool. Not that Whirlpool's bad, but she wanted some for herself and for her daughter.

[Narrator/Investigator]

But the days leading up to her death were fraught with tension. She had just failed her nursing board exams and was in the midst of an ugly breakup. For the past year, Heather had been involved in her first same sex relationship with a woman she met at Whirlpool, Carmela Badillo. But they'd just had a big blowup. There had been threats made, hadn't there?

[Sheriff Chris Hilton]

Yeah, there had been that, yes. The text messages and the phone calls and some of the exchanges were very, very nasty.

[Narrator/Investigator]

Lead detective Sean o' Connell says Carmela was one of the first people he looked at.

[Detective Sean O'Connell]

There was some type of a verbal altercation between Heather and her girlfriend Carmela that Wednesday. Heather goes in to work on Wednesday evening and leaves work Thursday morning not to be seen.

[Narrator/Investigator]

But after examining Carmela's phone records and speaking to her several times, o' Connell determined Carmela was not the killer. You were comfortable ruling her out?

[Detective Sean O'Connell]

Absolutely.

[Narrator/Investigator]

He was not so quick to rule out this woman. Kiana Bore, a single mother who lived in the apartment complex where Heather's car and body were discovered. Is it fair to say that your interactions with Guiana Bore early on raised your suspicion about her?

[Detective Sean O'Connell]

Absolutely, absolutely, yeah. From her demeanor, from her reluctancy on wanting to talk to us? Yeah, absolutely.

[Narrator/Investigator]

But even more than that, it was that Mickey Mouse shirt on Heather Bogle's body.

[Detective Sean O'Connell]

There was some speculation that the shirt that was found on Heather Bogle, again, it's a red xl, Mickey Mouse type T shirt. Kianna Boer was seen to be wearing this same type of T shirt.

[Narrator/Investigator]

Andy says her Facebook postings read like a confession referenced here in the police report.

[Detective Sean O'Connell]

Kiana is making statements on her Facebook page that I can't believe what happened, just happened.

[Narrator/Investigator]

O' Connell says she also makes mention in another post about doing eight to 10 years for murder and pleading insanity the day Heather disappears.

[Detective Sean O'Connell]

The day that she disappeared? Yes. April 9th of 2015.

[Narrator/Investigator]

He says he became even more suspicious when he learned that Omar Satchel, a man who served time on home invasion and firearms charges, was in Keona's apartment the night Heather's body was found. Omar Satchel very quickly becomes a person of interest to you.

[Detective Sean O'Connell]

He did? Why? Because of his involvement as far as being in the vicinity of the time of her body being discovered.

[Narrator/Investigator]

O' Connell believed Omar knew Heather, that he sometimes sold her pot. But even more importantly, o' Connell says he found a link between Omar Satchel and what possibly could have been the gun used to kill Heather.

[Detective Sean O'Connell]

During the course of my investigation, I find out that Omar may have stolen a small caliber type firearm.

[Narrator/Investigator]

Neither the gun nor the bullets were ever found. But o' Connell claims a source told him that a third accomplice, a friend of Omar's named K? Re Jeffrey, dumped the murder weapon.

[Detective Sean O'Connell]

So according to my source, who was standing next to Kre Kay, Re walked up along the riverbanks and tossed this black bay containing the firearm using the homicide into the river. Which ultimately prompt us to launch a dive team into the river in hopes to recover the bag.

[Narrator/Investigator]

Came up empty.

[Detective Sean O'Connell]

Came up empty.

[Narrator/Investigator]

So what would the three of these people have as a motive to kill Heather Bogle?

[Detective Sean O'Connell]

I don't know what their motive would have been.

[Narrator/Investigator]

O' Connell didn't have enough to arrest them, but continued building his murder case against the three. A case newspaper man Matt Westerhold was watching with interest. He and his paper had a long history reporting on the detective.

[Matt Westerholt (Reporter)]

We were concerned because we didn't believe Detective o' Connell could conduct a legitimate investigation.

[Narrator/Investigator]

Westerholt had just found his next big story. Was this bad police work or was he a bad cop?

[Prosecutor Tim Braun]

It was both.

[Narrator/Investigator]

There was Kiana Boer before Heather Bogle's murder.

[Kiana Bore]

Got a house for me and my kids. Got a good job at a nursing home and everything was going real smooth.

[Narrator/Investigator]

And then there's Kiana Bourne now.

[Kiana Bore]

So it's like the dark cloud that's always over my head.

[Narrator/Investigator]

And who put that dark cloud over your head?

[Kiana Bore]

Sean o'.

[Narrator/Host]

Connell.

[Narrator/Investigator]

Kiano says Detective o' Connell to targeted her from the night Heather's body was found.

[Kiana Bore]

I lived in this apartment right over

[Narrator/Investigator]

here raiding her apartment.

[Kiana Bore]

They went out of their way to throw all of our pictures in the trash.

[Narrator/Investigator]

And storming the nursing home where she worked with a warrant for her DNA.

[Kiana Bore]

I'm wheeling a resident out the dining room to go get him ready for bed. And the whole all the detectives, the police come in there, guns out, and

[Narrator/Investigator]

they had their guns drawn.

[Kiana Bore]

Yes.

[Narrator/Investigator]

O' Connell publicly named Kiana a suspect. She lost her job, her apartment and her reputation.

[Kiana Bore]

I had to keep my son out of school. I have people in my inbox telling me I'm a monster and me and my kids deserve to die and all type of stuff because what he told the newspaper and the newspaper put out

[Narrator/Investigator]

there, Kiana says she was an easy target. Poor, black and voiceless. She says o' Connell never even asked her if she had an alibi.

[Kiana Bore]

He never did that because he wasn't interested in ruling me out. He was just interested in making me guilty.

[Narrator/Investigator]

He was trying to find facts that would fit his theory that you were involved.

[Kiana Bore]

Correct.

[Narrator/Investigator]

Kiana had several run ins with Sean o' Connell before he helped put her ex boyfriend in prison for a mandatory 10 years on a drug charge. She says that's what she was talking about in her Facebook post that o' Connell found so incriminating.

[Kiana Bore]

The only reason why I would have posted about the 8 to 10 years is because I was upset that my child's father just got 10 years mandatory for his first drug offense.

[Narrator/Investigator]

Here he is doing 10 years for a drug offense. And there are people who get 8 to 10 for murder by proving insanity. That's what you were posting.

[Kiana Bore]

Correct.

[Narrator/Investigator]

And it didn't have Anything to do? Nothing at all with Heather Bogle?

[Kiana Bore]

No.

[Narrator/Investigator]

And that Mickey Mouse shirt found on Heather's body, the one he insinuated belonged to Kiana, was it your shirt?

[Kiana Bore]

No. I only owned one Mickey Mouse hoodie. Well, sweatshirt in my life.

[Narrator/Investigator]

So it's a sweatshirt, not a T shirt. You don't own a T shirt?

[Kiana Bore]

No.

[Narrator/Investigator]

Were you involved in the death of Heather Bogle?

[Kiana Bore]

No.

[Narrator/Investigator]

Did you cover up, have any role in covering up Heather Bogle's death?

[Narrator/Host]

No.

[Narrator/Investigator]

Desperate to clear her name, Kiana contacted Matt Westerholt, managing editor of the Sandusky Register.

[Matt Westerholt (Reporter)]

I've never had a criminal suspect come to me and say, hey, I'm being targeted by police for a murder I didn't commit. That's never happened.

[Narrator/Investigator]

He quickly came to believe o' Connell was framing her.

[Matt Westerholt (Reporter)]

If you interview Keona Boris, she's very believable. And it seemed obvious that, you know, she didn't know anything about this.

[Narrator/Investigator]

Westerholt had been covering Sean o' Connell and his then boss, former Sheriff Eric Overmyer, for years, publishing numerous reports accusing them of corruption and incompetence. One headline that the paper ran, the headline is, sheriff Overmeyer and Detective o' Connell have a history botching high profile cases.

[Matt Westerholt (Reporter)]

Right?

[Narrator/Investigator]

Fair headline.

[Matt Westerholt (Reporter)]

Yeah, absolutely. We probably documented a half dozen different cases where the families involved, you know, were complaining bitterly about how they were treated by law enforcement. And there was no doubt in my mind that they were botching these investigations. My guest today is Keona Bore.

[Narrator/Investigator]

Westerholt featured Kiana's story on his webcast several times.

[Matt Westerholt (Reporter)]

Do you consider yourself a victim of Detective OConnells?

[Kiana Bore]

I very much do.

[Narrator/Investigator]

He was determined to keep the pressure on o'. Connell.

[Matt Westerholt (Reporter)]

We like to say that's who we are. That's what we do. In this case. We turned out to be a consistent, persistent watchdog that didn't give up.

[Narrator/Investigator]

Despite the public scrutiny, o' Connell spent a year and two months pursuing his theory that Kiana, Omar and K. Re acted together to kill Heather Bogle, even in the face of strong scientific evidence to the contrary. Authorities found DNA under Heather's cuticle they believed left by her killer. But it didn't come back as Omar Satchel.

[Detective Sean O'Connell]

It did not.

[Narrator/Investigator]

Didn't come back as Keanu Bohr's.

[Detective Sean O'Connell]

It did not.

[Narrator/Investigator]

Didn't come back as Kayri Jeffries.

[Detective Sean O'Connell]

It did not.

[Narrator/Investigator]

So the fact that the DNA under her fingernails does not belong to any of those three doesn't rule them out in your mind?

[Detective Sean O'Connell]

It does not.

[Narrator/Investigator]

But in his report to the prosecutor seeking an indictment. O' Connell didn't even mention that the DNA did not match. In a mission that would soon come out in the open just one week later, Detective o' Connell was taken off the case and placed on leave.

[Matt Westerholt (Reporter)]

I knew the end was coming. He was forced to resign.

[Narrator/Investigator]

He wasn't the only one in trouble.

[Sheriff Chris Hilton]

I take full responsibility.

[Narrator/Investigator]

Today Sheriff Overmeyer was arrested and sent to prison.

[Detective Sean O'Connell]

Prison?

[Narrator/Investigator]

For stealing drugs. Sounds to me like law enforcement in the Sandusky County Sheriff's Department. Not in tip top shape between Obermeyer and o'.

[Prosecutor Tim Braun]

Connell.

[Matt Westerholt (Reporter)]

Well, yeah, if your. Your sheriff, who is the. The lead officer of your criminal drug task force, has an addiction problem, you got problems.

[Narrator/Investigator]

O' Connell's bogle file was handed over to the State Bureau of Investigations. What they discovered was not only shocking, says Chris Hilton, who took over as sheriff. It was criminal.

[Sheriff Chris Hilton]

He attempted to indict people for murder. That had absolutely nothing to do with it.

[Narrator/Investigator]

Is this a case of a cop being overly ambitious? Is this racism? Or is this incompetence?

[Sheriff Chris Hilton]

Anything I could say would be pure speculation.

[Narrator/Investigator]

Nobody knows the case better than you.

[Sheriff Chris Hilton]

What do you think I'm gonna say? It's a little combination of everything you just said.

[Narrator/Investigator]

Newly elected Sandusky County Prosecutor Tim Braun agreed. He opened a criminal investigation that led to oconnells arrest and indictment on four felony charges.

[Prosecutor Tim Braun]

He lied. He falsified police reports. He tampered with evidence. He tried to make a case that he didn't have, and he tried to push it through.

[Narrator/Investigator]

O' Connell was charged with misleading a public official and destroying, concealing and tampering with evidence. You're looking at some serious charges?

[Detective Sean O'Connell]

I'm looking at some very serious charges.

[Narrator/Investigator]

Did you mishandle evidence?

[Detective Sean O'Connell]

Absolutely not.

[Narrator/Investigator]

Did you knowingly make false statements?

[Detective Sean O'Connell]

Absolutely not.

[Narrator/Investigator]

Alter, destroy, conceal, remove evidence?

[Detective Sean O'Connell]

Of course not.

[Narrator/Investigator]

So where are they getting it from?

[Detective Sean O'Connell]

They're getting it from speculation.

[Narrator/Investigator]

That's not how Chris Hilton sees it. Was there any reason to focus on Kianna Bore?

[Sheriff Chris Hilton]

After the first day or two, I would say no. She had nothing to do with it.

[Narrator/Investigator]

And neither, he says, did Omar Satchel or Kayri Jeffrey. The BCI investigation showed the three suspects never knew Heather, never met Heather, never sold her pot. But Sean o' Connell still stands behind his investigation, right or wrong. So you can be wrong, but that doesn't mean you had tunnel vision.

[Detective Sean O'Connell]

I could be. Detectives are wrong all the time.

[Narrator/Investigator]

You were just wrong.

[Detective Sean O'Connell]

I'm not even here to say that I'm wrong because the investigation I never had the opportunity to close out that job.

[Narrator/Investigator]

Fell to the new sheriff, and he wasn't going to stop until he got it right.

[Sheriff Chris Hilton]

I knew it was a solvable case. I just knew it had to be done right. I said, we are going to open this up to the point where it just happened. Every lead, every person, everybody is a suspect until we can eliminate him. And that's what we did.

[Narrator/Investigator]

Heather Bogle had been dead for nearly two years when sheriff Hilton and his team took over the investigation. They had no clue who killed her, but were positive it was not a random killing.

[Sheriff Chris Hilton]

We felt that whoever did this had something personal against Heather.

[Narrator/Investigator]

Someone she'd just had a huge fight with. Someone who'd written her an angry note found in the car where she lay dead in the trunk. Someone like Heather's ex girlfriend, Carmela Badillo.

[Sheriff Chris Hilton]

To me, she would be a logical person to investigate. I mean, again, when you look at the condition with which Heather was found, there was passion and anger in what whoever did that.

[Narrator/Investigator]

Carmela, who'd been quickly cleared by oconnell, went straight to the top of Hilton's suspect list. So you guys are basically.

[Narrator/Host]

I was done.

[Narrator/Investigator]

Like it sounds like she was. She was done too. She was brought in for questioning the last month.

[Narrator/Host]

I'll agree with everybody, it was horrible. It was rocky.

[Kiana Bore]

It was.

[Narrator/Host]

You didn't know what was going to happen next.

[Narrator/Investigator]

But the sheriff would soon rule out Carmela when he found a new suspect. Investigators started digging through Heather's social media and Gmail accounts. And suddenly there it was, stored in Heather's GPS records by Google. An electronic trail of coordinates showing Heather's exact movements from the moment she left work at 6:17am Is this your aha moment?

[Sheriff Chris Hilton]

Absolutely. We knew we had something. We knew could at least say definitively this is where she went after she left work that morning

[Narrator/Investigator]

at 6:30am 13 minutes after leaving work. Heather's phone GPS places her in a trailer home a few miles from the whirlpool plant.

[Sheriff Chris Hilton]

We find out later that day it belongs to Daniel Myers. Well, who was Daniel Myers? We had no idea at the time. We find out very quickly that Daniel Myers worked with Heather. We find out that he worked with her that night. We find out that he left approximately the same time that morning. That's when we went, aha. We got something.

[Narrator/Investigator]

Investigators knocked on Daniel Myers door.

[Sheriff Chris Hilton]

He was cooperative, but not overly. He kind of distanced himself from knowing Heather.

[Narrator/Investigator]

They recorded their conversation. Did you know her at all?

[Sheriff Chris Hilton]

Very, very little. Very little. Just more, I mean, very Limited conversation. One of the things he says that really makes the hair stand up, like, why are you still investigating this? Is what he's asking. Like, this is done. It's over with. Been two years. Guess I guess I'm a little.

[Detective Sean O'Connell]

It's a little odd that, you know, you guys are.

[Narrator/Investigator]

No, I know it's cold case, and

[Sheriff Chris Hilton]

you guys are just, you know, grasping at straws, trying to figure out. When I listened to it, I was like, oh, my God, this might be our guy. This. This might be our guy. And then the clincher was, at the end of that interview, they asked for a DNA sample.

[Detective Sean O'Connell]

I'm gonna pass on that. I didn't really know the girl or who I.

[Sheriff Chris Hilton]

Dad, he's the first person that said no.

[Narrator/Investigator]

Investigators returned two days later with a warrant for his DNA to match it against the DNA found under Heather's cuticle. We got a search warrant for your DNA. Okay. So what we wanted you to do is to be a little more forthcoming to help us narrow this thing down. Because you know what? We're narrowing it down.

[Kiana Bore]

Okay.

[Narrator/Investigator]

Okay. They got their sample and results came back five days later.

[Sheriff Chris Hilton]

My major came into my office and he says, sheriff at DNA belongs to Danny Myers. I think we almost wanted to break into tears. It was. It was like, we have him, we got him.

[Narrator/Investigator]

They learned this man who said he barely knew Heather Bogle had contributed $125 and wrote a warm condolence note on her GoFundMe page and made sure people knew he was at Heather's funeral. He signs the registry book at her funeral?

[Sheriff Chris Hilton]

Yes.

[Prosecutor Tim Braun]

It's a kind of guy who's trying to look normal. He's trying not to do anything that would trigger in anybody's mind that maybe Danny Myers is just a little different.

[Narrator/Investigator]

It turns out Daniel Myers had been hiding in plain sight all along. Shortly after Heather, a whirlpool employee sent an email to Detective Sean o' Connell saying she knew someone capable of this crime.

[Sheriff Chris Hilton]

And she. She point blank told us. I was going to tell him I thought it was Daniel Myers.

[Narrator/Investigator]

But o' Connell already fixated on his three suspects. Never followed up. If you had worked the whirlpool angle a little harder, do you think Daniel Myers name might have surfaced?

[Detective Sean O'Connell]

I don't know how we could have worked it any harder. I mean, what more could we have done?

[Narrator/Investigator]

It didn't take Sheriff Hilton very long to figure it out. Just five months after opening the new investigation, he and his team arrested the single father at a summer campground.

[Sheriff Chris Hilton]

And the only thing that he ever said was, oh, my God, they're here to get me. And then we took him into custody, and that was pretty much the last thing he said to us.

[Narrator/Investigator]

I think you got a story to tell.

[Detective Sean O'Connell]

We'd like to hear it. Okay.

[Narrator/Investigator]

Searching the trailer, investigators never found the gun or bullets that killed Heather. But they did find damning evidence. New floorboards bought less than a week after her murder. Meaning what?

[Sheriff Chris Hilton]

Meaning we believe we found where she was murdered in his trailer.

[Narrator/Investigator]

And he would have replaced the subflooring because it was covered in blood.

[Sheriff Chris Hilton]

Blood, possible bullet holes. Any number of reasons you gotta cover it up.

[Narrator/Investigator]

The trailer yielded other secrets.

[Prosecutor Tim Braun]

He liked to keep women's underwear in a safe.

[Narrator/Investigator]

Slowly, they began piecing together a disturbing picture of a sexual predator. A man focused on control, domination, and humiliation.

[Sheriff Chris Hilton]

He had videos of himself with women and other women. He was very disturbing when it comes to his sexual fetishes.

[Narrator/Investigator]

After Daniel Myers arrest, 10 women came forward saying he raped them.

[Prosecutor Tim Braun]

None of them went to the police beforehand and said, this guy at the plant sexually attacked me in his trailer. They were all embarrassed and ashamed by it.

[Narrator/Investigator]

Investigators say Meyers picked women he thought would stay silent.

[Sheriff Chris Hilton]

And what better way to solidify that than to find ones that are vulnerable?

[Narrator/Investigator]

And Heather Bogle was vulnerable. She was reeling over her nasty breakup with Carmela. And they learned from Myers. She was also upset over a text her brother sent calling her too stupid to pass her licensed practical nursing examination. And here's Daniel Myers. Come tell me all about it.

[Prosecutor Tim Braun]

That's right.

[Narrator/Investigator]

She went to his trailer, says Braun, expecting a friend, but finding a killer.

[Prosecutor Tim Braun]

I think it happened immediately, as soon as she came in the door. I think he came onto her sexually. She probably immediately rejected him. I think he grabbed her. I think she punched him in the face. We know he had one cracked tooth and one broken tooth that he repaired with superglue. And then I think he physically overpowered her, beat her into submission, handcuffed her, beat her some more, stripped her, probably had her on the bed. And we know that because he ended up replacing his mattress at the end of the month after the homicide occurred. And I think he tortured her for a long time, and then I think he shot and killed her.

[Narrator/Investigator]

Do you think Danny Meyers could be a serial killer?

[Prosecutor Tim Braun]

I've always considered that a possibility and a relatively strong one.

[Narrator/Investigator]

Prosecutor Tim Braun has made a career of putting violent killers behind bars and says Daniel Myers seems like a pro.

[Prosecutor Tim Braun]

Most people, first time they kill somebody, they're overcome with emotion. They do stupid things. Danny Myers rationally and meticulously attempted to come cover this case up. That usually takes experience.

[Narrator/Investigator]

He seemed to have it down to a science, says Braun, cutting down Heather's fingernails and cleaning her body in an apparent attempt to remove DNA evidence.

[Prosecutor Tim Braun]

Have I dealt in the past with people who've attempted to destroy genetic material? Absolutely.

[Narrator/Investigator]

And usually not their first rodeo.

[Prosecutor Tim Braun]

Not their first rodeo. And they get good at kill covering up because they want to do it again. And so when I saw that, yeah, it raised a lot of questions in my mind.

[Narrator/Investigator]

Lorianne Haley says if Tim Braun is looking for proof Daniel Myers killed before, he doesn't need to look any further than her sister, Leanne Sluder. You think your sister was murdered?

[Narrator/Host]

Yes.

[Narrator/Investigator]

By Danny?

[Narrator/Host]

Yes.

[Narrator/Investigator]

No question.

[Narrator/Host]

No question.

[Narrator/Investigator]

Leanne was Daniel Myers ex girlfriend and the mother of his son. Nearly six years before Heather Bogle's death, Leann was found with a single gunshot to her chest. This crime scene photograph shows the.22 caliber rifle beside her. Authorities quickly ruled it a suicide. When you heard that word suicide?

[Narrator/Host]

No.

[Narrator/Investigator]

In a way, no.

[Narrator/Host]

I just talked to her 12 hours prior. There is no indication whatsoever that she was crying for help or giving me any signal.

[Narrator/Investigator]

Even more alarming, says Loriann, is why Leanne had a gun at all.

[Narrator/Host]

I knew my sister hated guns. She would not allow to have a gun in her house.

[Narrator/Investigator]

That's a giant red flag.

[Narrator/Host]

Yes. He supposedly told investigators it was for her protection. I'm thinking to myself, Protection from what?

[Narrator/Investigator]

Daniel Myers admitted to giving the gun to Leanne for her security. But Lorianne was skeptical of how her sister could use it to shoot herself in the chest with its long barrel and then leave it lying neatly next to her body. How could she do that? With a rifle?

[Prosecutor Tim Braun]

Yeah.

[Narrator/Host]

Impossible.

[Narrator/Investigator]

How could she reach the trigger?

[Prosecutor Tim Braun]

Well, that's the issue.

[Narrator/Investigator]

A lot would remain unanswered, says Tim Braun.

[Prosecutor Tim Braun]

Leanne Sluiter's suicide, in my opinion, was not a properly processed crime scene in the sense that it was not photographed. Well, evidence wasn't collected. It wasn't done correctly.

[Matt Westerholt (Reporter)]

So if they had done gun residue tests on Daniel Meyer's hands in that 2009 investigation, they would know unequivocally whether he had shot that weapon.

[Narrator/Investigator]

That sounds like standard operating procedure.

[Matt Westerholt (Reporter)]

Right. Well, this is Sandusky County Sheriff's Office, and at that time, it was not a professional agency.

[Sheriff Chris Hilton]

I believe the investigators at the time took Daniel at his word that she killed herself.

[Narrator/Investigator]

Do you think if your sister's death had been properly investigated, Heather Bogle would be alive?

[Narrator/Host]

Yes.

[Narrator/Investigator]

You didn't hesitate one bit.

[Narrator/Host]

No.

[Narrator/Investigator]

Investigators recently took another look at Leanne's death. They came to the same conclusion of suicide after determining Leanne was physically able to reach the rifle's trigger. And after all, an undated letter also surfaced. Authorities say this is her handwriting and reads like a suicide note. All I ever wanted was to just die so that the hurt would stop. Daniel Meyer's relatives say they found it in his home after his arrest.

[Narrator/Host]

I don't believe it was fully authenticated. I don't understand why he had it for so long, and then all of a sudden it pops up. Case closed, done it's just sad that, you know, the justice system wasn't on our side. I know that he killed her. He knows it. Problem is, you can't prove it.

[Narrator/Investigator]

Now Lorianne is hoping to get justice for her sister through another victim's case. If found guilty of killing Heather Bogle, Daniel Myers could be sentenced to death. And in your view, your sister's killer.

[Narrator/Host]

Yes.

[Narrator/Investigator]

Would be executed.

[Narrator/Host]

Yes.

[Narrator/Investigator]

Not just Heather Bogle's killer.

[Narrator/Host]

It would be both. Yes.

[Narrator/Investigator]

How strong a case do you have?

[Prosecutor Tim Braun]

In my experience, we had a very, very good case.

[Narrator/Investigator]

Tim Braun has Meyer's DNA under Heather's family fingernail, the GPS records placing her at his trailer, and his history of violence against women. But there's one huge obstacle. Sean o'. Connell.

[Prosecutor Tim Braun]

From a trial lawyer's standpoint, it was a nightmare. It's a nightmare because you have the original investigator pointing the finger at other people.

[Narrator/Investigator]

And that would provide a convenient alternate suspect theory for any defense attempt attorney. So before Daniel Myers could stand trial, the prosecutor believed Sean o' Connell would have to be discredited once and for all, officially ruling out his three suspects. Omar Satchel, Kayri, Jeffrey and Kiana Bore.

[Kiana Bore]

I just hope what o' Connell did to us doesn't affect Heather's justice in convicting Daniel Myers.

[Narrator/Investigator]

And they were about to find out.

[Detective Sean O'Connell]

Tomorrow at this time, I could be at a local county jail getting ready to be booked in. I don't want that to happen. I don't think that should happen. I don't think what I did warrants this to happen. Taxact is here anytime you want to easily file your taxes.

[Narrator/Investigator]

Once I figured out that Shopify was a thing, I never turned back.

[Kiana Bore]

I can create a site with my eyes closed. Shopify thinks ahead of us, you know,

[Narrator/Investigator]

and it thinks about the customer more than anything. Every day I'm thinking about some other new business, but Shopify is doing it to me because it's so easy to use. It's like, I can't stop. I'm addicted. Start your free [e-mail]. It was A stunning change of fortune. Sean o', Connell, once a detective charged with upholding the law.

[Detective Sean O'Connell]

Hey, buddy.

[Narrator/Investigator]

Is now facing a trial for breaking it. Accused of four felonies in connection to his Heather Bogle murder investigation, in which he focused on three innocent people, o' Connell remains defiant. Do you feel you owe Omar Satchelkay on a board and Carrie Jeffries an apology?

[Detective Sean O'Connell]

Why would I apologize? I mean, if you look at.

[Narrator/Investigator]

Because they didn't do it.

[Detective Sean O'Connell]

How do we know that for sure?

[Narrator/Investigator]

But the day his trial was set to begin, o' Connell finally admitted to a mistake. He pled guilty to one felony count, tampering with evidence by omitting the DNA results that excluded his three suspects.

[Detective Sean O'Connell]

All I can do now is just kind of hope for the best, not only for me, but for my family when it comes time for sentencing.

[Narrator/Investigator]

The former detective arrived at his sentencing hearing with his wife and family by his side, hoping for probation, but preparing for prison.

[Detective Sean O'Connell]

When I took this investigation, as I've done with many other investigations throughout my

[Narrator/Investigator]

career, o' Connell addressed the court in a plea for leniency.

[Detective Sean O'Connell]

I wasn't purposely trying to leave out anything. I was just trying to highlight what I had.

[Narrator/Investigator]

At that point, Judge Patricia Cosgrove zeroed in on his failure to report the DNA results.

[Narrator/Host]

Why didn't you include that?

[Detective Sean O'Connell]

You're right, you, Honor, I did not include it. And I take full responsibility for that. And for what it's worth, I apologize for not doing that. But again, I did that because I was simply trying to get the prosecutor a feel on why I thought it was these three people.

[Narrator/Investigator]

One of those three people, Kiana Boer, finally got the chance to address the man she says ruined her life.

[Kiana Bore]

I have lost time with my children, time with my family. I have lost friends. I have lost family. I have pretty much lost every single thing that I've had because of this man. And I'm still trying to get it back.

[Narrator/Investigator]

After listening to all the testimony, Judge Cosgrove took a hard line.

[Narrator/Host]

I gave him some consideration for his 25 years of service, his military service, his volunteer work. But he has to go to prison. This has to send a message to other law enforcement officers. Hey, when you look at a case, look at all of it. And when you present a case, present all of it. Today's the day of sentencing. Take him into custody.

[Narrator/Investigator]

Sean o' Connell was sentenced to two years in state prison.

[Matt Westerholt (Reporter)]

What about o'?

[Prosecutor Tim Braun]

Connell?

[Narrator/Investigator]

The newspaper man who had covered o' Connell through the years in this case and several others, was overwhelmed. This Hits you deep, huh?

[Matt Westerholt (Reporter)]

The families. It was a moment of vindication for the families that he hurt because he. He hurt them so bad. And he could have. It would have been so easy. Easy to just do the right thing.

[Narrator/Investigator]

Is Sean o' Connell where he should be? In prison.

[Sheriff Chris Hilton]

Anytime somebody that wears the same badge that I do gets in trouble, breaks the law, convicted of a crime, they need to pay for it. I believe he is where he should be.

[Narrator/Investigator]

With the o' Connell case now resolved, Braun was finally ready to take on Daniel Myers.

[Prosecutor Tim Braun]

In court, we had more than enough to prove it beyond a reasonable doubt.

[Narrator/Investigator]

But within days of the trial starting, Myers derailed the proceedings.

[Prosecutor Tim Braun]

You all right? What's going on?

[Narrator/Investigator]

He was found face down in his cell.

[Kiana Bore]

One, two, three.

[Narrator/Investigator]

Dazed and incoherent in what turned out to be a failed suicide attempt.

[Prosecutor Tim Braun]

Do I think he was trying to commit suicide? I think he was trying to crack a medical emergency.

[Narrator/Investigator]

Buy some time.

[Prosecutor Tim Braun]

Buy some time.

[Narrator/Investigator]

But time finally ran out. Daniel Myers chose to plead guilty rather than face the possibility of a death sentence.

[Sheriff Chris Hilton]

You understand that a plea of guilty is a complete admission of guilt? Yes.

[Narrator/Host]

I want you to know that you took away a mother and a friend

[Narrator/Investigator]

and a loved one that no one

[Narrator/Host]

can ever get back.

[Narrator/Investigator]

One time suspect Carmela Badillo spoke directly to the man who tortured and killed her former girlfriend.

[Narrator/Host]

I want you to know, Daniel Miles, I do not forgive you. No one in this room can say that they forgive the devil, people say.

[Sheriff Chris Hilton]

Sheriff, how could he do this? Why would he do this to such a young, beautiful woman? What was he thinking? And I would tell them, this man is a monster.

[Narrator/Investigator]

Daniel Myers will have a lot of time to think about what he has done. He'll spend the rest of his days in prison with no chance of parole. After nearly four years, the people of this county finally saw justice.

[Sheriff Chris Hilton]

Sanuski county is a great place. I think it's a little better now, and I'm proud of that.

[Narrator/Investigator]

Heather Bogle's memory will live on in the hearts and minds of the people of Sandusky county, who are now free to remember the beautiful young mother she was and imagine a life that could have been.
