Ex-Husband Caught on Camera Before Killing Mom of Six

from Murder Files Unsealed · host AC Wilson

In Oswego, Illinois, 44-year-old Ryan Dodd faces multiple charges, including first-degree murder, after allegedly killing his ex-wife, Ashley Stewart. The victim's current husband reportedly witnessed the beginning of the attack in real-time through a home security camera while he was away at work. Police quickly launched a manhunt using drone units and K-9 teams, leading to Dodd’s arrest during a traffic stop just 27 minutes after the emergency call. Legal experts highlight that digital evidence, such as the doorbell footage and GPS data, will be central to the prosecution's case for premeditated stalking. Prosecutors have filed a wide array of charges to reflect the brutality of the invasion and ensure a substantial sentence. Meanwhile, the community is mourning the mother of six, and investigators continue to search for the murder weapon used in the fatal assault.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/murder-files-unsealed--6017387/support.This episode includes AI-generated content.
