Accident or Murder — What Really Happened to Casey Pitzer?

Watch the Criminally Obsessed original documentary "Dead Silence: The Casey Pitzer Investigation" out now on our YouTube channel. “She's got her hand on my shoulder guiding me slowly. But she's there. She's there with me all the time." Nearly thirteen years ago, a day meant to celebrate luck and joy took a dark turn for 32-year-old mother Casey Pitzer. She was last seen leaving a bar in Wilmington, Ohio the night before St. Patrick’s Day 2013... and was later discovered a week later in a retention pond, her death ruled an accidental drowning. But failed polygraphs, destroyed evidence and buried questions tell a different story. The family’s painful and complicated fight for answers continues to this day. For more than a decade, Casey’s loved ones have lived with questions, heartbreak, and a relentless determination to seek the truth. Casey’s case is close to our hearts here at Criminally Obsessed, and we’re here to make sure it remains in the spotlight. Senior Investigative reporter Anne Emerson sits down with Greg Pitzer, Casey’s father, and Darrell Petrey, the Pitzer family’s advocate. They take us through the timeline and key evidence in the case, speak candidly about the toll of a 13-year search for answers, and share their latest efforts in an unwavering fight for justice. The full documentary will also air Saturday, March 7th, at 7pm ET on WKRC-TV/Local 12 in Cincinnati, Columbus WSYX-TV/ABC 6 in Columbus and WKEF-TV/ABC 22 in Dayton. Our conversation with Casey’s loved ones is a powerful reminder that this is more than a headline - it’s a family’s fight, and it’s far from finished.
