Jeff Ryan Found Guilty Of Murder
by MARTHA SOROHAN
Gazette Newspapers
JEFFERSON – Jeffrey Ryan
of Conneaut will spend the next
33 years behind bars following
sentencing Tuesday afternoon in
Ashtabula County Common Pleas
Court.
Ryan, 39, was found guilty of one
count of aggravated (pre-meditated)
murder, two counts of murder and
one count of felonious assault, with
firearm specifications, for the May
6, 2015, shooting of his father, Tom
Ryan, in the living room of their
home at 466 Benjamin Street.
A jury of six men and six women
produced a verdict at 10:45 a.m.,
deliberating a little over two hours
following six days of testimony in
the courtroom of Ashtabula County
Common Pleas Court Judge Thomas Harris.
The prosecution, led by Ashtabula County Prosecutor Nicholas
Iarocci and his Chief Assistant,
Cecilia Cooper, and the defense,
led by attorney David Per Due,
agreed on one key point before the
trial began on June 14: that then
38-year-old Ryan pulled the trigger of the .380 caliber Beretta that
killed his 66-year-old father after
placing the loaded gun that morning on an antique table beside Jeff’s
living room recliner.
But why the loaded gun was
placed within arm's reach the afternoon that Tom Ryan returned
to the home to pick up remaining
belongings following a dissolution
of his decades-old marriage was the
question at the heart of the trial.
Was the murder pre-meditated,
as the prosecution alleged, or,
according to the defense, an unintended consequence of a father/
son scuffle initiated by the father’s
attempt to retrieve a matchstick
ship that was to have remained
with Jeff’s mother, Sandy?
Arrested by Conneaut police
shortly after the 4:15 p.m. shooting,
Ryan confessed, later bound over
to the Ashtabula County Grand
Jury, and charged with four counts:
aggravated murder, two counts of
murder and felonious assault.
He pleaded not guilty.
Iarocci and Cooper maintained
that the shooting was pre-meditat-

ed, that Ryan's earlier statements
and actions showed a carefully
crafted means of removing his father from his life.
Financial advisor Robert A.
Stroud, Jr., of Erie, Pa., met Tom
Ryan in 2008 after Ryan sought
legal advice following the termination of his pension. Stroud met with
Sandy and Jeff Ryan on April 23,
2015, after Sandy and Tom signed
divorce papers, to discuss the divided assets and Sandy’s monthly
income.
"Jeff did a lot of 'Tom-bashing,'"
Stroud testified for the prosecution.
"I was a little bit alarmed. I tuned
it out to get things on track, but he
said if Tom tried to get back in the
house after the divorce, 'I'll shoot
him.' Sandy slapped him in the arm
after he said that.”
Recalling Jeff Ryan's words,
Stroud called Conneaut police immediately after learning of Tom
Ryan's death two weeks later.
Ryan’s cousin Grant Bennett,
Jr., of Madison Street in Conneaut,
visited the Ryan home on May 4,

Based on information from the Ashtabula County
Historical Society, The Courier stated last week that
Lulu Falls no longer exists. The Courier reporter Joy Cobb
states otherwise. “The falls are still there, just a fraction
of the size they used to be due to erosion and filling, etc.,
but you can find the falls by going to the end of Kingsbury
Road. There's a small trail to the right and you can see
four-wheeler tracks going back there. The falls don't look
anywhere as big as they did in old historical photos, but
they exist!” she says.
Conneaut City Councilmen joked Monday evening
that perhaps City Manager Jim Hockaday should go on

Biscotti’s Participating
in UW’s “Empty Plate”
CONNEAUT – Persons
interested in supporting the
“Empty Plate” fund-raiser
sponsored by United Way of
Ashtabula County may stop
in at Biscotti’s Restaurant,
186 Park Avenue.
The fund-raiser asks
patrons at participating
Ashtabula County restaurants to add $5 to their bill.
The $5 goes toward the
Ashtabula County Food
Bank, which provides food
to local food banks across the
county, including Conneaut
Food Pantry. Last year,
the Ashtabula County Food
Bank provided over one million pounds of food to those
food banks.
“I encourage people to
come out this weekend,”
said Lori McLaughlin, of
Biscotti’s. “It’s a cool idea to
raise money for food banks.”
Drowning Victim Remembered in Candlelight Vigil
By William A. West
Gazette Newspapers
CONNEAUT — The
threat of rain was ignored by
hundreds of people honoring
Jakub Hess and supporting
his family Thursday night
during a candlelight vigil on
the Lake Erie shoreline at
Conneaut Township Park.
Hess, 16, of Hiram,
drowned June 12 while
swimming off the park
beach.
Volunteers spent several
hours before the start of the
vigil preparing the 16 bright
red balloons to commemorate Hess’ 16 years of life,
filling hundreds of balloons
for release and candles for
display for well-wishers.
Hess’ mother, Beth Ann
Hutchinson, exchanged
hugs with the candle-bearing supporters in a light
rain as they walked the
boardwalk to the shoreline.
“The outpouring of love
and support has just been
absolutely phenomenal and
overwhelming for us and our
family,” Hutchinson said.
“The rescue workers gave
a 1,010 percent to find my
son. My heart goes out to
them because I know it’s a
rough job.”
As the rain subsided and
the setting sun peeked
through the clouds, the
crowd sang a verse from
Hess’ favorite song, “Huntin’, Fishin’ and Lovin’ Every
Day” by country music artist
Luke Bryan.
Balloons with notes attached were released into
the air.
The Rev. Mark Bair,
Evangel Temple in Geneva,
read Hess’ obituary and a
poem.
Melissa Sutley, Toni
Loveland and Kelly Dolan
had spent several days
putting the solemn event
together.
Sutley, Loveland and
Dolan used a Facebook
page and word of mouth to
get vigil information out to
the public.
CVS Pharmacy, RiteAid and Conneaut Public
Library made donations.
Marcy Funeral Home donated about 400 candles
with which sympathizers lined the boardwalk
and pavilion. Conneaut
Area Chamber of Chamber
loaned candles used for
the annual Lights of Love
ceremony.

“I talked to Beth and she
was very appreciative of
our offer to help organize

“She guided us to the proper song to memorialize her
son and provided photos.”
Sutley went through a
similar tragedy 22 years ago
when her brother drowned
while swimming at Conneaut Township Park in
1994.
“It;s been a mission to
support families through
such tragedies,” Sutley said.
Hess’ body was found by
divers in eight feet of water
on June 14, nearly 48 hours
after he disappeared while
swimming with family and
friends the evening of June

Tourism Board Will Fund Balance of Lake Road Way-Finding Sign
By MARTHA SOROHAN
Gazette Newspapers
CONNEAUT – At its
6:30 p.m. June 14 meeting
at Buccia Vineyards, the
Conneaut Board of Tourism unanimously approved
funding the “way-finding”
sign that will go up at Parrish and Lake Roads.
The Signs for Conneaut
Committee in 2016 is adding two more “way-finding”
signs at Parrish Road and
Route 20, and Parrish and
Lake Roads.
The City of Conneaut is
funding the Parrish Road/
Route 20 sign.
Signs for Conneaut Committee has been seeking
donors for the Parrish and
Lake Road sign all year, and
has received some contributions.
The committee wants to
install the Parrish Road/
Route 20 sign and the Parrish Road/Lake Road sign
simultaneously since the
Parrish Road/Route 20 sign
will direct visitors coming
into Conneaut from the
city’s west side up Parrish
Road to head to the beach
and marina. The Parrish/
Lake Road sign must be in
place to direct them east to
those tourist attractions.
The Board of Tourism
voted to spend up to $1,400
on the second sign so that it
can go in immediately. The
two new signs will join signs
that went in at six major
city intersections in 2015.
More signs may be added in
the new few years.
The Signs for Conneaut
Committee, a sub-committee of the Board of Tourism,
has ordered the plaque for
the Western Reserve historical boundary marker
on East Main Road. The
Western Reserve Historical
Society is paying half of the
cost of the marker. Lembe
Napp is donating an American flag and a flagpole for
that site. Dedication is
tentatively scheduled for
September.
The Board of Tourism is
working on a new program,
“Business of the Month,” to
be presented at a Board of
Tourism meeting as well
as Conneaut City Council
at one of its monthly meetings. Each board member
listed five candidate businesses that support tourism in our community.
Tourist Board Chair Connie
Naylor will notify the Tourism Board
Connie will notify the
Tourist Board of the first
business selected as winner, prepare the award, and
notify City Council.
Tourism Board members
Tom Smile and Glenda
Lowe have volunteered to
oversee the Board of Tourism table and the scavenger hunt at the Outdoor
Learning Center “Discovery Days” on Aug. 6. Volunteers are needed.
The board plans to move
storage space from the
former Fire Station 2 on
Lake Road to the former
New Leaf United Methodist Church, 283 Buffalo
St., which is now owned by
D-Day Ohio, Inc. Because
the former church offers
better space, the moving of
materials was scheduled
the evening of June 22.
Children’s “Conneaut”
shirts have been ordered
and are in. Shirts of all
sizes, styles and colors
will be sold at the Board
of Tourism table at the Rib
Burn-Off Sept. 9, 10 and 11,
weather permitting.
The Tourism Board discussed the city’s proposed
bike lane northbound on
Broad Street and southbound on Mill Street.
Other coming events
in the city include the
Fourth of July Festival
June 30 to July 3, including fireworks on July 3;
Discovery Days, Outdoor
Learning Center, Aug. 6;
D-Day Re-enactment Aug.
19-20; K-9 Fund-Raiser
Cruise In/Dinner Sept. 3;
Rib Burn Off/Chili CookOff Sept. 9 to 11; Santa
Parade Nov. 25; and Santa
House, Lakeview Park,
Dec. 3, 10, 17.
The Tourism Board
will help publicize the K-9
fund-raiser Sept. 3 at New
Leaf Event Center. The
event is on the Tourism
Board’s web site and will
be publicized in North
Coast Voice.
WQLN “Our Town” Storytellers’ Screening June 27
By MARTHA SOROHAN
Gazette Newspapers
CONNEAUT – The storytellers in the upcoming “Our
Town: Conneaut” are invited
to a sneak preview screening
at 7 p.m. Monday night at
Arlene’s Broadway on Buffalo, 236 Buffalo Street.
The final version of the
show is in its final stages this
week, according to Jocelyn
Taylor, WQLN Production
Assistant.
Taylor said that the
screening is open only to
those persons who voluntarily gave up about an hour
of their time to videotape
their stories about Conneaut
people and places at the
Bear Creek Farm Bed and
Breakfast last month. The
storytellers are also invited to
the WQLN studios on Peach
Street to be part of a live audience while the program is
being aired on June 30.
“They get a preview next
week. Everyone else is supposed to watch,” said Taylor.
The preview will include
all the interviews, even those
which due to time constraints
may not make it on air. “Our
Town: Conneaut” will air at 8
p.m. Thursday, June 30, over
WQLN, Erie’s public television studio.
WQLN reports that Conneaut had the best participation of six “our Town” cities
in terms of people stepping
forward to tell their stories,
including just one “no-show”
when it came to taping.
Conneaut also raised
about $10,000 in sponsorships. Though not quite
covering the show’s goal of
$15,000 to cover production
costs, Taylor said it was “one
of our best.”
Sponsors include Con-
neaut Dairy Queen, Villa
At the Lake, White Turkey,
Conneaut Port Authority,
Conneaut Savings Bank,
Conneaut Area Chamber of
Commerce, Ashtabula County Medical Center, University
Hospitals Health Systems,
and Bear Creek Farm Bed
and Breakfast.
Taylor added that the
next “Our Town” location is
London, Ontario.
“Our neighbors across the
lake,” she said.
Leaning Tower of Conneaut?
The Tourist Board 2016
goals include advertising
Conneaut as a long-term
destination through varied
marketing strategies; providing maps, brochures,
and information throughout Conneaut and beyond;
refining survey cards and
surveying visitors to our
area for their feedback;
build a database for advertising and contacts; and
working with other entities
to provide way-finding sig-
nage within the city.
Tourist Board members attending the June 14
meeting were Joanna Bucci, Mary Griswold, Deborah
Herbel, Marj Kent, Glenda

After being discovered in early March, this leaning
utility pole on Broad Street between Main and
Liberty Streets is just now receiving attention from the
Illuminating Company. So concerned was City Council
President Nic Church that after getting no response
from CEI, he notified Ohio Rep. John Patterson (D-99),
who promised to notify his "inside contact." Someone
looked at the pole on Friday, and street markings
indicate that it could soon be replaced. Though
Church was to have been contacted about the steps
being taken to correct the problem, he is still waiting.
"This could fall on someone's house and someone
could be electrocuted," Church told Council on
Monday night. "This is serious, serious stuff."

Treatment for H.
Pylori Infection
Heliobacter pylori (H
pylori) is a bacteria that
is commonly found in the
stomach. In certain circumstances, it can cause
an infection that leads to a
peptic ulcer. An ulcer starts
when the stomach lining
gets damaged. Researchers believe that it can be
by Kerry Gerdes
caused by contaminated
food and water. Symptoms

of a peptic ulcer include a

burning sensation in the
stomach, stomach pain

that increases on an empty
stomach, nausea, bloating,
burping, and some weight loss.
H pylori infection is treated with a combination of
medications designed to help protect the stomach and
reduce the harm of bacteria at the same time. Antibiotics
help kill bacteria or stop the growth of bacteria from causing more harm. A medication that helps the stomach ulcer
heal is added to the antibiotic. Proton pump inhibitors
such as esomeprazole magnesium (Nexium) help decrease
the stomach from making more acid. Bismuth subsalicylate (Pepto Bismol) coats the ulcer to help protect it from
further damage.

Life’s A Beach At Conneaut Arts Center Arts Camp
By Joy Cobb
Gazette Newspapers
CONNEAUT For
two consecutive weeks each
summer, Conneaut Arts
Center offers a week-long
arts camp for kids who
just finished kindergarten
through fifth grades. About
50 kids attend camp each
week 9 a.m. to 3 p.m.
Last year, the theme
was “Superheroes.” This
year, the theme was “Beach
Fun.”
The kids are divided
into groups according to
their age. Each group has
two high-school age volunteers. Groups rotate between teachers, with three
teachers doing crafts in the
basement of the Arts Center, one in the rear annex
and one leading a hip-hop
dance class upstairs.
CAC Executive Director
Penny Armeni said that
kids come from all over the
county to attend.
“Some even come from
out-of-state, if they stay
with grandparents over the
summer,” she said.
This year, UH-Conneaut
Medical Center came in
one day to lead activities
on healthy life styles or
nutrition, and Conneaut
Public Library presented a
program Friday afternoon.”
An annual Arts Camp
project is the tie-dying of Tshirts. Students wear their
shirts during camp.
This year, each class
took a group photo, then
centered them on seashell
or beach pebble mattes, and
framed and decorated them

Summer Arts Camp. They are (left) teacher Jamie Humphreys, Lizzie Kray, Ricky Roth,

with foam beach critters.
The framed photos became
Arts Camp souvenirs.
Emmy Mauro, Arts
Camp Director, has been
active with the camp for
15 years.
Her daughter, Tia
Rhodes, teaches as well.
“We have new teachers
this year with new ideas,
and they’re all having a
great time,” said Mauro,
showing some of the crafts
the kids had completed so
far: oversized foam sunglasses, “stained glass”
jellyfish, Frisbees, “Life
is a Beach” plaques, rock
“people” on canvas, paperplate sea turtles, and glittery sunset scenes.
“They do some teambuilding exercises,” said
Mauro, referring to a group
of older students bouncing
a ball around on a colorful
parachute outside. “We also
have music twice a week.”

Conneaut’s Creative Writing
The Ache-a-dake Man
By Christine Vandervort
The year was 1952 in Erie, Pennsylvania. The location
was a government post-war housing project on the far east
side of the city. Each apartment had a postage-stamp-sized
yard which was the entire world of play for the children.
The two girls sat on the back step, absorbed in their
game. They were drawing pictures in the dirt with small
rocks in their tiny back yard. The first time they heard
the Ache-a-dake Man they dropped their rocks and stared
at each other, as if to inquire, “What’s that?”
Marilyn and Christine listened carefully to the unfamiliar sound coming from far down the street. “Ache-a-dake,”
rose on the air in the distance. They heard a muffled song
inching closer to them. Soon another strange sound was
added to the muffled song, “clop, clop, clop, clop.” What
was that? The girls ran toward the sound to the end of the
yard. Without leaving the yard, they searched up along the
street and down along the street behind their apartment
house for the source of the sounds they had just heard.
There it was again, coming even closer . . . “Ache-adake” “Ache-a-dake” along with the “clop, clop, clop, clop.”
Then they saw it. It was a horse drawn wagon, with an
old man at the reins. The wagon was partially loaded and
seemed heavy for the two horses. The girls were excited
and delighted to discover the sounds and sights of this
wagon. They ran indoors to tell their mother about the
wagon. Their mother explained that the man was actually
saying, “Rags todayyy . . . Rags todayyy.”
The Ache-a-dake Man made his living by passing
through neighborhoods, collecting rags for recycling. As
time went on, the girls made a contest of who could hear
and who could see him first. The excitement each time
the Rag Man was in the neighborhood grew with the
passage of time.
When the girls were a few years older, the family moved
from the east side to the west side. They moved from the
duplex apartment to a very large home to accommodate
the growing family. The two story home sat on a double
wide lot. It had two huge porches, one on the front of the
house and one on the back of the house. The back porch
was closed in with large windows. The house also had
a two car garage, and many groves of lilacs, fruit trees,
and berry patches. The girls were in heaven in their new
surroundings. The opportunities for their play world had
expanded but they missed listening for the Ache-a-dake
Man. One day as they played on the front porch of their
new home, they heard the distinctive muffled song and
the clop, clop, clop, clop.
The Ache-a-dake Man was in their new neighborhood.
Oh what joy as they passed the tradition of hearing and
seeing him to their new brothers and sisters!

Education
Change Is Tough, But Good Things Are On the
Horizon, Conneaut Superintendent Tells Teachers
By MARTHA SOROHAN
Gazette Newspapers
CONNEAUT – Conneaut
Area City Schools Superintendent Michael Notar
told the teachers seated
before him at the June 2
end-of-the-year Teachers
Breakfast at Conneaut High
School that he scrapped the
first speech he had intended
to deliver in favor of one
coming from the heart.
“Thank you for the wonderful year, and for your
comments, both positive
and negative,” he said.
Notar went on to explain
to those most affected why
he decided to make changes
among the administrative
staff.
Conneaut High School
Principal Dawn Zappitelli will become principal
at Gateway Elementary
School, while Gateway Prin-
cipal Kris Mucci is returning to Director of Testing
and Curriculum.
Conneaut Middle School
Principal Joel Taylor will
assume his former position
of Athletic Director, and be
replaced by Lakeshore Primary School Principal Jim
Kennedy.
Athletic Director Jim
Campbell will become assistant principal at Gateway.
New principals hired are
Dr. Tim Neal, Conneaut
High School, and Wendy
Tisch, Lakeshore.
“I went to all the buildings and talked about where
we needed to be,” Notar
said. “I talked about how
we have a wonderful staff.
Everyone – from the bus
drivers and custodians – I
encouraged getting together
as a team, to believe in one
another. It’s important,
because change is diffi-
cult. I’ve been in districts
in which I am part of the
change, and you have to
step back and look at the
end result. My role is to
get Conneaut where it used
to be.”
Notar said some teachers
likely remember when Conneaut was top among the
school districts in Ashtabula
County.
“I am bound and determined to get that back. We
have the staff in place to do
that,” he said.
Notar talked about having stayed up too late the
previous night because he
had been too upset about
the Cavs’ first loss to the
Golden State Warriors to
sleep.
“Coaches have to adjust.
Last night my disappointment as a Cleveland fan
– you’d think I was part
owner. I was up till 1 o’clock.
But they have to step back,
or they’ll be done in four
games without changes. I
have to move the district in
the right direction,” he said.
Notar acknowledged that
honesty can be hard to hear.
“I don’t hide or sugarcoat it, and I hope from
our union negotiations that
you’ve learned I’m open and
honest. I want to reassure
you that I believe in where
we are going. I have school
board support. I am here for
the long haul. I will do all I
can to support you and the
students,” he said.
Notar is working on plans
for the next school year.
Among his ideas are before and after-school care for
grades K to 5.
“We know there is a
need,” he said.
Most important, he wants
to remain a positive support
for teachers, parents, and

“Early One Evening at Rainbow
Bar and Grille” Opens June 24
CONNEAUT - The dark
comedy “Early One Evening
at the Rainbow Bar and
Grille” will make its debut
on the Arlene’s Broadway
on Buffalo (“ABOB”) stage
June 24. The play continues
at ABOB, 236 Buffalo Street,
Conneaut, June 24-25 and
July 1-2.
Cast members include
Denny Dixon as Shep, Brandon Sweeney as Roy, Jordan
Rimpela as Willy, Heather
Harrison as Shirley, David
Bucci as Bullard, and Marisha Sullivan as Virginia.
Directed by Clay Nielsen,
Bruce Graham’s play is set in
a small-town bar and seeks to
answer what would happen
to people as humanity worldwide is slowly extinguished.
The well-written script
contains a lot of situational
humor.
One reviewer said, "Graham’s intelligent and humorous (yes, humorous) script
keeps everything low-key.
The reason for Armageddon
is mostly left ambiguous,
other than it appears to be
man-made. That’s not the
focus of the play. Instead,
we zero in on a well-defined
group of strangely upbeat
small town folk as they unceremoniously come to grips
with their impending doom.
(Think “On the Beach” rather
than “Dr. Strangelove”.)
“We encounter the char-
acters through their interactions with easy going
bartender, Shep; Roy the
fireman who’s playing one
last winner-take-all hand of
cards; Willy the local marksman who’s intent on offing
his dentist before the end
arrives; Shirley, the barmaid, who wants to have
a wild goodbye fling; Bullard, the traveling salesman,
who’s just passing through;
and Virginia the high school
health and physical education teacher who’s determined to head out west to be
with family.”
“It’s real people in an unreal situation,” said Sweeney.
“Plus, everybody loves an
apocalypse.”
Nielsen said the ABOB
advisors were attracted to
the play because of its title
and setting in the Rainbow
Bar and Grille, similar to the
Rainbow Cafe just around
the corner from the theater.
“It just seemed like a very
natural fit,” he said.
The ABOB stage crew
has recreated their version
of the Rainbow Cafe layout,
complete with full bar and
working beer tap.
Show times are 7:30 p.m.
each evening. Doors open
6:45 p.m. Admission is $10
for adults, $8 for students.

RYAN
2015, to help Sandy and
Jeff Ryan change the locks
following the divorce.
Jeff asked him how to
care for the .22 caliber Ruger
and the .380 Beretta that
Sandy had inherited years
earlier from her father's
estate. Ryan told Bennett
that he was worried about
increased crime in the neighborhood. Neither firearm
was registered because they
came from an estate.
"He took the [Beretta]
out of the case and asked
me how to open, clean and
take it apart. He was waving it around. I don't think
he knew what he had," Bennett said.
The gun contained four
rounds in the clip, but the
chamber was empty.
"I took the rounds out to
make sure it was unloaded.
It had a safety, and I turned
the safety on and emptied
the clip. But I wasn't really
that familiar with it, so I
told Jeff I needed to do more
research on it, so as not to
break it. I gave it back to
Jeff. I told him to leave the
safety on," Bennett said.
Bennett testified that
Ryan pulled the slide back
and put the gun back in
the case, but he had no idea
what Jeff did with the bullets. He watched his cousin
put the gun on the table by
his recliner.
Taking the stand in his
own defense on June 20,
Ryan said that after Bennett
showed him the intricacies of
the Beretta, he unloaded the
gun that night, loaded it the
following morning, unloaded
it the next night, and loaded
it again early on May 6. That
was his procedure, he said,
so he would have a gun for
daytime protection. Ryan
said he had other guns upstairs for protection at night.
During the trial, small
details of the fatal incident
varied from witness to witness.
Gary Anderson, a 35-year
friend of Tom Ryan's, testified for the prosecution that
he was inside 488 Benjamin
Street on May 6 helping
Ryan move his final belongings from the house. Sandy
Ryan was in the kitchen,
while Jeff Ryan sat in his
recliner in the living room.
Anderson said Tom Ryan
came back in to retrieve one
"last thing," a matchstick
ship he had made "years
ago."
Anderson recalled that
when Sandy realized Tom
wanted the ship, she said
that he was not taking it.
After a brief argument, Tom
entered the living room and
approached Jeff’s chair,
which was underneath the
ship hanging about seven
feet high on the wall in a
lighted hand-crafted shadow
box. Anderson testified that
as Tom reached up for the
boat, Jeff got up with a gun
in his right hand.
"It was by his right leg.
He brought it up as he stood
up," Anderson said.
Anderson said Tom
Ryan dropped his arms and
pushed his son. Jeff took a
few steps back, then went
back toward his dad, holding the gun “down a ways.”
The two turned and got hold
of each other. Jeff had one
hand on his dad's shoulder
and chest. Tom had hold of
his son with one arm.
"Tom saw the gun and
tried to turn it," Anderson
From page 1A
testified. "They both held on
to each others' shirts."
When Jeff stepped in
close, the gun went off into
Tom's chest.
"Tom grabbed his chest
and fell next to the couch,"
Anderson said. "Jeff had
hold of him a little, and the
gun was pointed down. He
bent over his dad. He looked
up at me and turned his
head. I got out of the house.
I was scared. He had a gun
in his hand."
Anderson said the police
arrived shortly thereafter.
In their testimony, numerous Conneaut police
officers including Sgt. Curt
Distel, Officer John Helfer,
Det. Michael Sullivan,
and current Acting Chief Michael Colby spoke of securing the scene, obtaining evidence, and whisking Ryan
to headquarters, where he
underwent a videotaped
two-hour questioning shown
to jurors last Friday.
Emotionless through
much of the interrogation
by Colby and Sullivan, Ryan
did not know that his father
had died from the single gunshot wound to his chest until
Colby told him well into the
interview. Ryan then put his
head in his hands and wept.
Ryan said in that interview that he had kept his
guns in his room because
he knew his dad would not
go in there. He said the
matchstick ship had been a
gift to his mother from his
father, who made it in the
Air Force. When his father
came into the living room for
the ship, Ryan said he told
him he was not getting it.
His dad replied, "Yes, I am."
Jeff said he told him, "Just
leave. Just go."
Ryan, medically disabled
and on several medications
– told officers that he had
seen in his father's eyes the
same wild look that used to
accompany severe childhood
beatings.
"It was scary. At that
point, I pulled the trigger,"
he told investigators.
After the shooting, he
went to the garage to smoke
a cigarette, then went back
inside and put the gun on
the table.
“When I heard the police
coming, I put it down. I went
out the front door. I never
ran,” he said. “I knew what
I did.”
Ryan told officers during
the interrogation that he
brought the guns downstairs
after his father moved out
because neither he nor his
mother moves well, and the
guns would offer protection. He could not remember
when the gun was loaded the
afternoon of May 6, but said
he turned the safety off after
he and his dad began scuffling. He said he had never
fired the gun before.
“Everything was like a
blur,” he told the officers. “I
couldn’t tell you how I got
from here to there. Bang!
Bang! It was so quick my
mind wasn’t digesting anything.”
Testifying for the defense,
Sandy Ryan described a dysfunctional family characterized by fear of her husband
and a relationship between
Jeff and his dad “not good at
all in any way.”
The former preschool
teacher said she and Tom
had disagreed on who would
get the matchstick ship, but
had not discussed it because
“we didn’t talk. He didn’t
talk.”
Mrs. Ryan said her husband frequently “got on Jeff’s
case” that he “wasn’t sick,”
and had refused to help
finance Jeff’s college education. Beatings of both her
and the boys was not infrequent; Jeff had testified
earlier that the last beating
by his father had taken place
15 years ago.
On the day of the shooting, Sandy corroborated her
son’s story that her husband
angrily entered the living
room with a red face, bulging
forehead veins, and waving
arms.
“I was scared,” she said.
“I’ve seen him like that. I
was in fear of my life. I look
fine, but I am not strong.
I could not have defended
myself against Tom Ryan.”
She said she never recalled Jeff’s saying he wished
his father were dead.
The Ryans’ other son,
Jeremy, who left home in
1993 and works for a Christian radio station in Urbana,
painted an entirely different
picture during his emotional
testimony as a prosecution
witness, saying his father
disciplined the boys only
with a hand and belt on the
backside “when we needed
it.”
In his closing argument,
Iarocci frequently referred
to evidence from the Conneaut police interrogation
transcript of Ryan’s saying,
“I pulled the trigger.” He recounted medical community
testimony of the bullet having perforated Mr. Ryan’s
left upper lung and grazing
the left ventricle of the heart.
He told the jury that Ryan,
angered over years of abuse
and paternal neglect, in plotting the shooting had asked
his cousin’s advice about the
gun, and taken advantage
of an opportune moment
when his father – about
seven inches shorter than he
-- came into the living room,
unarmed, toward his chair to
retrieve a matchstick ship.
“There is absolutely
no legal justification for
the shooting death of Tom
Ryan,” Iarocci concluded.
Per Due in his closing
arguments told the jury that
if Tom Ryan had entered the
living room for the ship, he
would have brought something to stand on.
“It was impossible to get
the ship without moving
something, so what was his
purpose? We submit that it
was the last chance that Tom
Ryan had to get his ‘lazy-ass’
son. His last opportunity. It
was not about the boat. Jeff
had conditions and could
not stand up against his
father. Many people kill
with their bare hands. They
can be used as weapons. Jeff
believed that using deadly
force was the only way out
even if his decision was erroneous. But Tom Ryan caused
Jeff to believe he would be
killed or cause great bodily
harm.”
Some 20 members of the
victim’s family packed two
pews of the courtroom Tuesday when the verdict was
read. In another pew, Sandy,
her brother and her sister,
Peggy Bennett, held hands.
Jeremy Ryan was the
only family member to give a
statement during the 1 p.m.
sentencing.
“You heard the jury loud
and clear,” he said, at times

Prosecutor Nick Iarocci
presents closing arguments
Tuesday in the Jeff Ryan
murder trial.
emotional. “My dad – Jeff’s
dad – was not a monster.
He loved his kids, me and
Jeffrey. He prayed for both
of us on a daily basis. The
impact of this does not just
affect the immediate family,
but goes way beyond to other
communities and states.
Thousands are impacted
by what happened May 6,
2015. I will tell you that I
forgive my brother, Jeff, for
murdering our father. I forgive him of the acts, the lies
and the betrayal. God loves
my brother very much and
Tom loved him very much.
There are no winners here.
Only losses. My mother lost
her husband, my brother lost
his father, a grandmother
lost a son and a family lost
a brother. The punishment
must fit the crime.”
Harris in his final remarks said, “Crimes don’t
get much worse than aggravated murder.”
Afterward, praising the
Conneaut Police Department, Iarocci said he and
Cooper spent over three
months preparing their
case.
“I was disturbed by the
maligning of Tom Ryan’s
reputation, but it was evident to the jury that the
claims were unfounded,
based on its quick verdict,”
he said. “The jury spoke
loud and clear.”
Other than saying that
he will appeal, Per Due had
no comment.
His client, taken away in
handcuffs for the first time
late Tuesday morning, will
be eligible for parole in 33
years – 30 years on the aggravated murder/murder
charges and three years on
the felonious assault charge.
Sandy Ryan said that
she was deeply disappointed
with the verdict.
“Had we been allowed
to deal with many issues of
Tom’s life, there would have
been a different outcome,”
she said. “I firmly believe
that Jeff was protecting me
from further abuse.”
