Central figure in Meter Reader murder case dies
Robert V. Lyons, once at the center of Cincinnati’s famed Meter Reader case, died at 65 from an apparent heart attack. Lyons was acquitted in 1956 of killing Audrey Evers Pugh, a socialite, amid a controversial confession he later repudiated. The case, linked to defense attorney William Hopkins, shaped local crime lore. Lyons retired from the water works earlier this year.
