A suspect was arrested Thursday in the Jan. 31 slaying of a young Springfield Township couple who were found with their wrists bound by duct tape and plastic bags covering their heads.
The suspect, Samuel Todd Williams, 24, 1626 Kelsey Ave., was arrested by Lucas County sheriff’s deputies and charged with two counts of murder, two counts of aggravated burglary, and one count of domestic violence.
He was booked in the Lucas County jail.
Johnny Clarke, 21, and Lisa Straub, 20, were found dead in Ms. Straub’s parents’ Longacre Lane home.
Investigators have said they believe the pair were killed in an apparent robbery attempt that occurred while Ms. Straub’s parents were out of the country on a Caribbean cruise.
The sheriff’s office had said at the time the crime was not a random act of violence and that Ms. Straub and Clarke were targeted.
