Police were called to the scene on January 20 and 21 of this year, once for a domestic situation from the mother of another person in the home. On Nov. 29 of 2017, a woman went to Westerville police to inquire about protection orders. Within “a half hour or so” of leaving the police station, police were called to the apartment the two shared for a dispute. Police were also called to the residence on Sep. 14, 2017.source

On Sunday, two counts of aggravated murder were filed against Smith in Franklin County Municipal Court.

Our thoughts and prayers go out to the families and friends at this difficult time.
