Redacted versions of the final autopsy reports were released Friday for the eight members of the Rhoden family who were killed execution-style in April in Pike County.

Ohio Attorney General Mike DeWine and Pike County Sheriff Charles Reader released the documents "to balance the current needs of the active investigation with transparency of the law enforcement process."

Preliminary autopsy results from April showed one of the victims was shot as many as nine times. They also indicated that all but one of the eight members of the Rhoden family killed in the shootings sustained multiple gunshot wounds.
