Sentencing Set for Accomplice in 2011 Double-Murder Case in Mercer County, Ohio

MERCER COUNTY, Ohio. (WOWO): A sentencing hearing has been set for 1:00 p.m., Tuesday, August 19th for Trevin Sanders Roark.


According to our partners in news at 21 Alive, he pleaded guilty to two counts of murder earlier this year for his roll in the murders of father and daughter, Robert and Colleen Grube. In November 2011, the victims were found bound with duct tape, shot to death in their Fort Recovery, Ohio home.


Earlier this week, Bryant Rhoades was sentenced to life in prison without parole for his involvement in the crime.


Sanders Roark, who was 17 at the time, told police he smoked meth with Rhoades before coming up with a plan to break into the Grube's home to steal pills, money, electronics, and jewelry.
