Summary

BREAKING NEWS...THIS DEATH HAS BEEN OFFICIALLY RULED A HOMICIDE! On this week’s episode we are going to look into one of the most mysterious deaths in Cleveland in the last decade, the death of 22 year old Corey Barron of Fremont, Ohio. The day started off with high expectations as Corey and his friends were heading to a country music concert featuring Jason Aldean. They were headed to Progressive Field, where the Cleveland Indian’s play.  It was meant to be a night of fun with friends and a few cocktails. Unfortunately for Corey and his friends the night would forever be remembered for what happened during the concert, and the fact that Corey never returned after leaving his section. If you know anything about this incident, you are asked to call crime stoppers at 216.252.7463 or the Cleveland Police homicide unit at 216.623.5464.
