Trial Key in Quadruple Slaying Case Unfolds Testimony
In Franklin County, a preliminary hearing revealed accounts of a May 2013 homicide plot involving defendants Flack and Stout. Thompson testified Flack admitted shooting White after a confrontation at a home and later claiming to have killed White when he believed he was still alive. Evidence includes a tarp covering bodies and cinder blocks. Judge Godderz allowed the statements into evidence, while noting Flack’s interview conditions and readiness for future hearings. The case ties to the May 2013 quadruple homicide at 3197 Georgia Road near Ottawa, with Lana Bailey and Kaylie Bailey among the victims. Flack remains jailed on a 10 million dollar bond.
