Murdered Couple Lisa Straub and Johnny Clarke: Who knew?

Johnny Clarke, Lisa Straub

A major investigation into why and who killed Lisa Straub and Johnny Clarke in Springfield township is underway. Investigators discovered white baggie pieces, a light blue lighter and a Ziploc bag on the kitchen floor. In the home of Lisa Straub on various kitchen countertops a digital scale, two knives and central security documents were found.

The list of collected evidence goes on, including a key with 5-4-4 stamped on it under the body of Lisa Straub. The items were seized -- taken as evidence -- during a search of the home owned by Lisa Straub's parents. Throughout the house, they gathered DNA swabs.

They also found a key with 5-4-4 stamped on it under the body of Lisa Straub. The warrant also describes black/pink interband pants under Straub's neck. Her wrists were taped together, but not her ankles. Johnny Clarke's ankles were taped up.

That's one of many details investigators are trying to sort through in the search for a killer or killers. Johny Clarke has a troubled past including time spent in prison. As prayers go out to the family of Johnny, the family is probaly asking themselves if they could have done something to prevent this. Clarke’s mother certainly has not lived her life as a good example for her son. As speculation surrounds who John Clarke may have told the house’s owners were out of town, one has to wonder, should it also be asked who his mother could have told?

    Wow, how could a child being raised by a mother like this ever learn the difference between right and wrong. Johnny didn't really have a chance, did he? When he got involved with drugs he was just following in mom's footsteps. Little wonder too that she didn't want to discuss his criminal record on NG as it could lead into hers....

    This is why she didn't want to talk about the son's record on JVM, because of hers, and she implied that these murders were committed because of someone Lisa knew not her son!

    Why hasn't LE commented on this case? They haven't let out any information at all?
