Two sentenced
for murder of Grubes
The Mercer County Prosecuting Attorney's Office confirms that on August
12, 2014, the Mercer County Common Pleas Court accepted the plea of
Bryant L. Rhoades, and the Court entered a judgment of conviction and
sentenced Rhoades for the murders of Robert Grube and Colleen Grube,
On August 19,2014 the Mercer County Common Pleas Court also sentenced
Trevin M.A. Sanders for the murders of Robert Grube and Colleen Grube,
But today is not a day for celebration. It is a day for
contemplation and reflection.
Incredibly selfish criminal acts led to the murders of Robert Grube and
his daughter Colleen Grube. The murders are horrific losses to
the Grube family, to friends of the Grube family, to the greater rural
Ft. Recovery Community, and to all of us.
The perpetrators of these horrific crimes were weak and immoral.
Their conduct was outrageous.
The criminal justice system is inadequate when it comes to addressing
these sins.
Nothing that law enforcement officers do, that prosecutors do, or that
Courts do, can come close to redressing the damage intentionally
inflicted upon the victims and their families by these perpetrators.
Hopefully, the resolution of these cases through conviction and
sentence can offer the family and friends of Robert and Colleen
Grube some sense of finality that will enable the to move forward with
their irrevocably changed lives.
