How You Can Help the Family of the Three Boys Killed in Clermont County

Chad Doerman, 32, confessed to planning and carrying out the execution of his three young sons aged 3, 4 and 7 on June 15.

Proceeds from the t-shirt sale will go will go to the boys' mother and sister, who survived the attack on their family from Doerman that day.

"All proceeds go to the Doerman Family. The boys’ sister selected this design," reads a Facebook post from the New Richmond Youth Sports Association.

The youth sports program, which is where two of the three Doerman boys once played baseball, will hold a memorial on Sunday, June 25 at the New Richmond Youth Ballfields. The memorial will also honor local first responders.

For those who want to donate differently, a Go Fund Me and Venmo information have been shared on the New Richmond Youth Sports Association Facebook page.

Rachel Brown, sister to the mother and aunt to the Doerman children, told CityBeat a fund named "The Doerman Boys Memorial Fund" will be set up in their honor at Park National Bank where anyone can donate.

The shooting happened around 4 p.m. on June 15 at a home on the 1900 block of Laurel Lindale Road in Monroe Township, about 30 minutes east of downtown Cincinnati. The sheriff's office said two calls were placed to 911, one by a woman who called screaming that "her babies had been shot,” and another by a passerby saying that a juvenile girl was running down the road saying that "her father was killing everyone."

Sheriff’s deputies said they arrived on scene to find 32-year-old Doerman sitting outside the home. The three boys who had been shot were in the yard. First responders practiced “life-saving measures” but were unsuccessful. All three children died at the scene. The boys’ mother, 34, was also outside the home with a gunshot wound to the hand. She was transported to UC Medical Center for treatment where Sheriff Robert Leahy said he informed her that her three sons had died from their gunshot wounds.

Doerman was booked in Clermont County Jail where he is being held without bond, according to a press release from the Clermont County Sheriff's Office. He has been charged with the three counts of aggravated murder. In court, prosecutors reportedly said Doerman confessed to planning the murders, lining up his three children and executing them with a rifle. Prosecutors said one of the boys tried to run away into an open field before Doerman chased him down, dragged him back to the house and killed him.

While speaking to WCPO's Tanya O'Rourke, Richard Kincannon, a neighbor of the Doermans, said the father was known for "yelling all the time and treating (his wife) like shit."

"He was angry every day," Kincannon told WCPO. "There wasn't a day he didn't yell at his wife and kids out there."
