111. SWAC SNACK: Kurt Sova Revisited- Exclusive interview with Chief John Majoy Part 2 of 2

from Speculating Wildly About Crime (SWAC POD) · host SWAC Pack

Jamie and Kristy conclude their interview with Newburgh Heights Police Chief Majoy about the Kurt Sova case, focusing on rumors and the department’s current findings. The Chief explains why claims about “people from Detroit,” a homeless man’s prediction, and theories that Kurt was dragged from the party house could not be validated, noting key witnesses and polygraphs supported the account that Kurt and Sam left the house and Sam later returned for his coat. He addresses how Kurt’s family could have searched the ravine yet missed the body due to distance from the path and high weeds. The Chief critiques the 1981 autopsy’s vague cause of death, discusses reviewing it with a modern medical examiner, and explains why exhumation likely wouldn’t yield new evidence. His opinion is that Kurt likely was not murdered, suggesting intoxication, exposure/hypothermia, or an unknown medical issue as possibilities. The case remains open but inactive, and police still follow tips and encourage anyone with information to contact Newburgh Heights Police or submit anonymously.Submit Leads to Kurts Case Here:Sova - Ohio Attorney GeneralSupport the showJoin our Discussion Group- (4) Speculating Wildly About Crime (SWAC POD) Discussion Group | FacebookFollow us on Facebook- (4) Facebook (https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100093283626257)Follow us on Instagram: Instagram (https://www.instagram.com/swacpod/)Follow us on TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@swac.pod?is_from_webapp=1&sender_device=pcLink to You Tube: (4) SWACpod - YouTube (https://www.youtube.com/@SWACPOD)Music licensed from Premium BeatGroovy by INPLUSMUSIC
