Resident Kevin Schober alleges past crimes and requests meeting with sheriff; sheriff invites private discussion
Summary
Kevin Schober spoke during public comment, alleging multiple murders and other crimes occurred at properties he previously occupied and asking to meet with county officials and the sheriff; the sheriff offered to meet privately after the meeting.
During public comment, Kevin Schober told commissioners he had experienced trauma he attributed to actions by previous law-enforcement officials and other people and said he wanted the county to be aware of alleged crimes and mistreatment. Schober said ‘‘17 people were murdered in my home’’ at 708 Fourth Street in Park Hills and described other incidents he said had traumatized him; he said some incidents were drug-related and that some alleged perpetrators remained at large. Schober said he had cleaned up a crime scene years earlier and that a friend who helped him subsequently died.
Commissioners asked clarifying questions about timing; Schober said the events occurred over several years and that his memory was imperfect after a stroke. Commissioners asked whether he would meet privately with the sheriff; Schober said he would and the sheriff offered to meet after the meeting.
The remarks were an individual’s allegations made in public comment; no commissioner or county official corroborated the claims at the meeting.
Ending: The sheriff and Schober agreed to meet privately after the meeting to discuss the allegations further.
