Ohio Bills Target Concealed Remains

Two new Ohio bills aim to slam perpetrators who hide or destroy victims’ remains, turning justice around for families like Amanda Dean’s and Katelyn Markham’s whose cases were stalled by buried bodies. Amanda Dean’s Law would punish corpse abuse with harsher penalties, including second-degree felonies for dismemberment or concealment. Katelyn’s Law creates a new third-degree felony for hiding remains to obstruct justice—with no statute of limitations, meaning prosecutors can still pursue charges decades later. Both bills passed the House unanimously, with zero opposition, signaling a major shift toward holding killers accountable no matter how long it takes to find their victims’ bodies.
