For history of jail check out their website: 

Wow this was an investigation to remember. From the spirit box saying our name to the ride home that reveled intelligent responses to our questions that we were not aware of at the time. See below to review the evidence.

There are 4 sections we hear something it is repeated a few times, take a listen and let us know what you hear by emialing SSSOMPI@gmail.com

LISTEN TO THIS: 

We were going to do a second investigation on November 19, 2016 and it was canceled -

The Board at the Old Licking County Jail has canceled all Ghost Hunts indefinitely!!

Finally we were going to do a second investigation on May 8, 2018 - We cannot wait to investigate this location again. This is going to be awesome.

So at the end of the evening we were in the sherriff's quarters on the second floor. We were making an attempt to make contact with the past sherriff's some who had past there at the Jail of heart attacks. We were asking who was here and we got the name "Kelly" and how did you die we got the word "throat". Lesson learned here as we were expecting to get the name of one of the sherriff's or the words heart attack. It wasn't until the ride home that we were comparing notes. We mentioned the questions we were asking and I asked does anybody know the name Kelly. Dottie  said wait I have a picture that lists all of the deaths at the jail. There it was, the second on the list Martin Kelley cause of death "Cut own throat with razor". It's one of those wow moments when you can tie your evidence to history. Listed below is the ovilus and the death list.
