Ohio V. Doan - The Missing Girlfriend Trial

The trial of Vincent Doan was to be one of the most controversial trials, in that a man was being charged with a murder of his ex-girlfriend who was missing and presumed dead, although her body was not available. I have divided the testimony up into the two sections for anyone wishing to read all the information. The prosecution contended that Ms. Culberson died at the hands of Vincent Doan or about August 29, 1996. However, Mr. Doan's defense team would bring forward 19 witnesses who claim to have seen Ms. Culberson and her 89 Red Honda CRX. If you would like to purchase the complete trial transcripts, you may call the Blanchester, Ohio Clerk of Court. You may also contact Court TV regarding the purchase of the trial in it's entirety on VHS. Below are some items entered into evidence.
