An investigation continues. Hit-run suspects turn themselves in

NEWPORT - Two women who were allegedly involved in a fatal hit-run accident turned themselves in to Newport Police Department detectives on Monday.

The accident that killed 4-year-old Haley Conway occurred around 7 p.m. Sept. 25 at a Newport Housing Authority complex in the 500 block of Brighton Street.

The child was crossing the street to get to an ice cream truck when she was struck by a car. The girl was pronounced dead at St. Luke Hospital East after the accident.

The car's two occupants abandoned the vehicle at the scene, fleeing on foot.

Driver Keesha R. Linville, 20, was arrested and charged Monday with operating on a suspended license, leaving the scene of an accident and possession of marijuana.

Her sister, Felicia N. Linville, 18, was arrested and charged with possession of marijuana.

Both were taken to the Campbell County Detention Center in Newport. Bond was set at $7,000 for Keesha Linville and $2,500 for Felicia Linville.

Newport police said both were Hamilton County residents.

Defendant sentenced in dismemberment case

HAMILTON - An East Price Hill man has been sentenced to four years in prison for his role in a Butler County slaying and dismemberment.

Anthony C. Ruffin, 44, received the sentence Monday in Common Pleas Court on charges of tampering with evidence and gross abuse of a corpse.

In August, a jury convicted a co-defendant, Gary Benson, 50, of Hamilton, on the same charges. His sentencing is Oct. 18.

Both men faced up to six years in prison for the mutilation of Jeffrey Glenn Watson, 41, of Hamilton.

Watson's charred torso was found New Year's Eve along a rural road near the Preble County line.

Authorities accused Benson and Ruffin of helping Cardale A. Goens, 37, of Hamilton, dismember Watson.

Authorities say the dismemberment happened after Goens shot Watson to death in Watson's South 11th Street home.

Goens could get the death penalty if convicted of killing Watson. His trial is set for April 12.
