It is with great sadness and a heavy heart that I share that longtime OTOA member Lieutenant Rodney Osborne, from a Southern Ohio Correctional Facility, was fatally shot on April 9, 2024, during a training exercise on the firing range at the Correctional Training Academy in Orient. 

Lt. Osborne was a 13-year veteran with ODRC and was beloved amongst his peers. He was a leader at his institution and a member of the honor guard, SRT, and the STAR team. We’re heartbroken over this sudden loss and ask that you continue to keep his loved ones and team members in your prayers.
