Man Arrested in Murder of Ohio Mom
Police have arrested a 22-year-old Columbus, Ohio man in connection with the home invasion robbery and murder of a Dayton woman and the abduction of her 4-year-old son. Charlie W. Myers, who lives near Ohio State University, has been charged with aggravated murder.The 4-year-old was abandoned at an Interstate 70 rest stop and led police to his dead mother.
Myers was one of three people police removed from a University District house in connection with the investigation into the death of Jennifer Nelson. The house was searched after a car stolen from the Nelson home was found at a flea market parking lot in Columbus.
Montgomery County Sheriff Phil Plummer said at a press conference that Myers confessed to being involved in the case, but he would give no details.
Home Invasion Robbery
A Maryland couple found William Nelson, 4, Friday night at a rest stop near Dayton. The boy told them a stranger barged into his home, killed his mother and left him at the rest area. Dead is 29-year-old Jennifer Nelson (pictured), a stay-at-home mom, who was found shot to death in her Harrison Township home near Dayton.
Jennifer Nelson's car was stolen in December when she and her husband Eddie attended a concert on the Ohio State University campus. That car was found near her home after she was found shot. Her mother's Oldsmobile was stolen at the time of the robbery.
That car was found in Columbus in the Westland Flea Market parking lot. The flea market is located on the west side of Columbus, about nine miles from the McMillen Avenue house where Myers was arrested.

Yet another criminal idiot out on parole!Now,a young mother is dead.I say if car jacking carries a 25 year sentence then a home invasion should carry the same sentence-and no parole whether anyone is harmed or not!
The Bill of Rights protects our home from the goverment why not from criminals that enter while you are there to rob and harm and worse yet,to kill.
Tack on five years for each person ‘harmed’ too plus any robbery,etc.Anyone that criminally brazen needs to be kept out of society.
‘Home jacking’ as I call it,is a very,very serious crime and it should be a FEDERAL crime.
Charlie W. Myers is nothing but a cold blooded psychopathic killer. He needs to
fry, the power surge. He is a useless evil
monster, let him reunite with the devil.He
was probably out on a parole violation. Like all paroles, more than half of them never
serve their sentence. That is what wrong with the justice system, if the judges wanted to
put these creeps away for the rest of their
lives they could.
