Daily News Update!
Thank you Huntingdon Daily News for a much needed update on this tragedy! Other local newspapers and news stations have not reported on this story since late December 2007. I guess finding 44 lb. fat cats in the street and other less news worthy stories are more important.
Police continue probe of man-woman killings

Police say no arrests have been made and the investigation is continuing in to the murders of a Huntingdon County woman and a Lewistown area man in the morning hours of Nov. 25, 2007.
"This case is being investigated vigorously," Cpl. Brian Haubrick, a criminal investigator with the state police at Lewistown, said. "There have been no arrests. There is much we are looking into, but beyond that, there is nothing more that I can comment on."
Haubrick picked up the case from former Cpl. Troy Park, now a state police sergeant and reassigned to York.
The deaths of Sherry Jo Leonard, 43, Three Springs, and Jason M. Specht, 33, Lewistown, were ruled to be homicides in late December by Mifflin County Coroner Daniel P. Lynch.
The two were discovered by emergency personnel at approximately 4 a.m. after responding to a structure fire at Specht's mobile home along Route 22 in Granville Township, Mifflin County. The coroner had indicated that forensic evidence showed that the two died as the result of skull fractures before the fire started.
Cpl. Haubrick said he is waiting for results of additional tests, and is working closely with Mifflin County District Attorney Stephen Snook on the case.
