The Buckeye State Sheriffs’ Association demands GoFundMe Remove Fundraiser for Cop-Killer who taunted Deputies at Arraignment.

Columbus, Ohio – Robert Cornwell, Executive Director of the Buckeye State Sheriffs’ Association demanding that the online fundraising platform GoFundMe shut down the multiple fundraisers supporting Rodney Hinton Jr. The man is currently charged with murdering a Hamilton County Deputy Sheriff while working a special duty detail on May 2, 2025.

On behalf of the Law Enforcement Community in Ohio and the nation, we implore the GoFundMe organization to immediately take-down the efforts of fundraising for an assassin.

The BSSA represents all the Sheriffs in the State of Ohio as well as over 3,000 deputy sheriffs and 17,000 private citizens.

Mr. Hinton and his family and friends should not benefit at the expense of a Law Enforcement Officer that was doing the job he was hired to perform.
