In July of 1990 in New Paris, OH, a group of teenage kids gathered at a rural plot of land to do what teenagers do best, have a party. The night was supposed to be about a birthday celebration and a chance to have fun! The party went off like it was supposed to for the most part. There was music, dancing, and all the things that go with a small town farm bash. The night ended and the party lights went out. The next morning there were some people that stayed there all night enjoying friendships and fun, while others returned to help clean up the inevitable mess that is left behind, but during the clean up someone found something awful. They found the body of a beautiful young partygoer floating in the small lake on the property. Lesa Buckley came to the farm to enjoy the end of summer only to have the Party Lights Go Out on Her forever. Guy Billy Lee Scott was later arrested and convicted of her murder, but did he really do it? Was he set up? Is there a murderer walking in town to this day or is Guy Billy Lee Scott the true killer? Through 3 decades these questions have been tormenting this small town. Hopefully, one day those questions will be answered for good.
