The SHOCKING Truth About Lt. Joe Clark’s Killer Revealed

Discover the shocking truth about Lt. Joe Clark’s killer in this revealing video. Learn the untold story surrounding this infamous case.

It was an ordinary March night in 1981 when Washington County, Ohio, lost one of its finest. Lieutenant Ray Richard “Joe” Clark was standing in the kitchen of his Marietta home, probably thinking about the Ohio State basketball game—when a bullet shattered his kitchen window.

Joe was dead before he hit the floor.

He wasn’t just any lawman. Joe Clark was a respected veteran, a stand-up cop known for doing the hard right over the easy wrong. But that March night, standing in his own home, none of it mattered. One bullet ended it all.
And with that, the case iced over faster than an Ohio winter.

The Long, Cold Silence
For 31 years, Joe’s murder haunted Marietta like an unfinished sentence. Deputies changed. Leads dried up. Files gathered dust. Locals gossiped about suspects the way others gossiped about football scores—lots of speculation, no real wins.

Finally a new Cold Case Unit and the Ohio Bureau of Criminal Investigation (BCI) stepped in, ready to dig up old grudges.

Mitchell Ruble, a former Washington County deputy who had once been fired by Joe Clark for police brutality was the killer.

Ruble, furious and humiliated, apparently decided that termination wasn’t enough closure for him. Revenge, on the other hand, was a dish best served from behind a sniper scope.
